Evidently one is not even safe in their own home these DAZE!!!
The line to a house is not the gas main, it’s the service line. The main is larger and usually runs under the street or sidewalk .
Good catch Ice. I am sure not everyone knows that. Glad there was not a fire.
Good details…something the ambulance chasing “reporters” generally lack.
So turns out to be nothing really?
Not if your the homeowner. Nothing? That’s apparently what you are.
“the Fortuna”? Really?
