What should I do if I smell gas?

If you smell gas, it is important to take immediate action to ensure your safety and the safety of others around you. First, you should leave the area where you detect the gas smell and encourage anyone else nearby to do the same. Make sure to avoid using any electrical devices, including light switches, as they may create a spark. Once you are at a safe distance from the source of the gas, you should contact the appropriate authorities. In most cases, the gas company will have emergency services available to respond to such situations. It is advisable to look for the contact information for PECO Energy on their official website to report the gas leak. While waiting for help, it is essential to stay clear of the area where you detected the gas smell. Gas leaks can be dangerous and may lead to fire or explosion hazards. Make sure to alert your neighbors if you feel it is safe to do so. Your swift actions could prevent a serious incident and keep everyone safe.
