Smell gas? Act fast!

Why does natural gas smell so bad? Mercaptan is a harmless odorant that is added to natural gas to make that “rotten egg” smell we all associate with natural gas. When you detect this “rotten egg” smell near your appliances, such as your fireplace, ovens, clothes dryers and other appliances:

Do The Following:

Remember:
