To locate the gas shut-off valve in your home, check near the gas meter, which is often on the exterior of the house or in a utility area such as a basement. The shut-off valve, typically a lever or knob, is usually found on the pipe leading to the gas meter, allowing you to cut off the gas supply to the entire house. It’s crucial to familiarize yourself with its operation, as it might require a wrench to turn. Additionally, individual gas appliances may have their own shut-off valves for isolating gas to that appliance. For specific guidance, consult with your local gas company or a professional plumber, and remember, in case of a gas emergency, prioritize evacuating the area safely.
When natural gas is used to heat water, it works kind of like a natural gas furnace, but for water. The natural gas burns and heats a component called a heat exchanger. The cold water comes into the water heater and goes around this heat exchanger. As it does, the water gets warm from the heat of the burning gas. Then, this hot water is sent to your taps or shower when needed.
