Hazards Associated with Natural Gas Leaks
Explosion or fire is a result of uncontrolled burning of natural gas. Improper gas pressure, gas/air mixture, or
ventilation can lead to uncontrolled burning.

Carbon monoxide is a dangerous byproduct of incomplete combustion of natural gas. It is colorless and odor-

less. Visual indicators include black soot, condensation on windows, and a yellow natural gas flame. If CO poisoning
is suspected, emergency personnel should be contacted immediately.
Natural gas is non-toxic; however, it can cause death by asphyxiation in confined spaces. Natural gas can
displace oxygen in the atmosphere, and cause asphyxiation without causing other symptoms.
