What should I do if I smell gas in my home?

Asked 6 months ago
If you smell gas in your home, it's important to act quickly and follow these steps: 1. Open all doors and windows to ventilate the area. 2. Avoid lighting any matches or smoking. 3. Do not operate any electrical switches or appliances. 4. Turn off the gas supply at the mains, if possible. 5. Leave the building immediately and call the emergency gas helpline once you are a safe distance away. Remember, gas leaks can be dangerous and should be treated as an emergency. Follow these steps to ensure your safety and the safety of others in the area.
