GAS LEAK? DANGER AHEAD!
Gas leaks present a significant health hazard and could pose a threat to your life and the lives of your family members or employees. Gas leaks can occur unexpectedly and may not always be easily detected.
Even if you are not completely sure there’s a gas leak, it’s better to err on the side of caution and get in touch with us. The risks of ignoring a potential gas leak extend far beyond immediate safety concerns—they can lead to serious property damage and incur costs that transcend monetary loss. Given that gas is highly combustible, even the smallest spark has the potential to precipitate a major fire. It’s especially crucial for residents and businesses in Adelaide to recognise this risk, as fires can occur in both workplace and residential settings. To mitigate this danger, we recommend regular leak detection services as a proactive safety measure.
COMMON CAUSES OF GAS LEAK IN ADELAIDE
The causes of gas leaks tend to be straightforward and are often manageable with timely repairs, underscoring the importance of prompt gas leak detection.
Breaks or cracks in gas pipes frequently result from tree root interference or damage incurred during renovations. Faulty pipe installation or the lack of regular maintenance and inspections are also common culprits of gas leaks.
Given that gas leaks can arise unpredictably at any hour, it is advisable to engage our team of gas leak plumbers in Adelaide for both the installation and routine examination of your gas pipes and appliances. Regular checks are pivotal in ensuring the safety and functionality of your gas systems.
WHAT IS A CARBON MONOXIDE TEST?
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a lethal, odourless, and colourless gas that may be emitted from faulty gas appliances, such as heaters and stoves. Without specialised detection equipment, its presence is extremely difficult to identify. Given that carbon monoxide can lead to severe health issues and even be fatal, regular checks of your gas appliances should be a top priority.
It’s recommended that CO testing of your gas appliances be conducted every two years. The gas leak repair and detection specialists at Adam Plumbing and Gas in Adelaide will help remind you when your next scheduled check-up is due. Our foremost concern is ensuring your safety.
For peace of mind and the assurance that all your gas appliances are functioning correctly, don’t hesitate to contact our team of gas plumbers for comprehensive carbon monoxide testing services today.
