That is because gas is odorless without the smell added.

How to tell if you have a gas leak

There are just a few ways to tell if you have a gas leak

Smell-like I just mentioned the gas company adds the smell of rotten eggs to make you aware of a possible leak.

If you notice a strong odor like this its not a good sign

Sound-If you hear an unusual hissing or whistling sound that you haven’t heard before it might be the gas escaping a broken gas pipe.

Sight-seeing unusual fly activity in your home (yes flies are attracted to gas), Brown or dead patches of grass, discolored soil in a particular part of your yard are all visible signs of a gas leak

If you notice any one or all three of these in your Aliso Viejo home or business call Streamline today.

We offer emergency gas leak service to any home or business.

Never delay if you’re concerned about a gas leak.

What causes gas leak in Aliso Viejo

There are several ways that a gas leak can occur

• Ground shifting- the ground shifts all the time but in California we have the added exposure of earthquake activity.
• Corrosion-like everything in your home or business things need to be replaced after a certain amount of time, this goes for gas lines as well
• Cheap materials-maybe the previous installer used less than ideal materials
• Not properly installed-gas lines were not fitted properly
• New installation of gas appliances not done correctly

Gas isn’t something that should be messed with if you don’t know what you’re doing.

Even something as simple as installing a new gas stove should be done by a trained professional.

If you try and set up your new gas stove and it’s not done properly you could cause a gas leak.
