I can smell gas — what should I do first, and how is a leak usually found?
If you smell gas, avoid flames or sparks, open windows and doors, and turn the gas off at the meter or cylinder if safe to do so. Professionals typically use an electronic gas detector and manometer to pressure-test the line and isolate the fault. Leaks often occur at appliance connectors, aging regulators, or damaged pipework. Once located, fittings are repaired or replaced, then retested to confirm the system is sound.
Do gas appliances need special ventilation, and what happens if airflow is poor?
Many gas appliances require specific clearances and make-up air to burn cleanly and vent products of combustion. Poor airflow can cause incomplete combustion, creating soot and potentially carbon monoxide. Installers check room volume, ventilation paths and flue performance to meet manufacturer and code requirements. If ventilation is inadequate, remedies might include flued models, added vents, or relocating the appliance.
Can an existing LPG setup be converted to natural gas (or the other way around)?
Often, yes — provided the appliance is certified for conversion and the correct conversion kit and injectors are used. A licensed technician will adjust regulators, replace jets/injectors, and verify pressure and combustion after the changeover. Piping size and meter capacity may also be checked to ensure adequate flow at the new gas type. Post-conversion testing and commissioning confirm safe, efficient operation.
