Do you suspect a gas leak?
Gas leaks are extremely dangerous and should initially be dealt with by Transco.
If you smell gas:
1. Put out all cigarettes or naked flames immediately and never turn any electrical switches on or off as this may cause a spark.
2. Turn off the gas meter at the control valve (see diagram), open all windows and doors and then call Southern Gas Network's (SGN) free emergency 24-hour hotline on 0800 111 999.
Once the leak has been dealt with, SGN engineers will tell you what the problem is so you can call our qualified engineers to come and fix the fault.
