It Smells Bad For A Reason.

In its untouched state, natural gas is actually odorless. For safety reasons, Southwest Gas injects an element called mercaptan, which emits an odor similar to sulfur or rotten eggs. Here’s the simple rule…If you smell rotten eggs, leave the area, then call us for help, whether you have natural gas at your home or business or not.

How To Identify A Leak

• SMELL- if you smell a distinct, sulfur-like odor, similar to rotten eggs, even if it’s faint o momentary
• HEAR - if you hear a hissing or roaring coming from the ground, aboveground piping, or a natural gas appliance
• SEE - if you SEE dirt or water blowing into the air, unexplained dead or dying plants or grass, or standing water continuously bubbling

What To Do (All Locations):

1. Exit the area or building immediately. Tell others to evacuate and leave doors open
2. From a safe place, call 911 and
