Tip of the Week
In the aftermath of an earthquake, check your home for gas leaks by using your sense of smell. If you hear a blowing or hissing noise, or smell gas, ventilate the area if possible and get out of the house. Turn off the gas at the outside main valve if you can and call the gas company from an outside phone. Itīs currently recommended to only turn the gas off if your hear or smell gas. Otherwise, leave it be. Many explosions have resulted from turning gas off unnecessarily.
