Mice chewed through the gas line to the heater.

I couldn’t understand why I was smelling gas in the basement, for the last two mornings, the smell of gas was getting stronger, as well as I couldn’t figure out where it was coming from; My wonderful friend and I had a gas heater, as well as I was getting worried; At first I wasn’t worried. My wonderful friend and I had recently had the fuel tank filled, and i thought the gas delivery lady may have leaked some gas when she filled the tank, and when the gas smell got worse, I called the Heating, Ventilation and A/C corporation. I wanted someone to look at the heating system to make sure there was nothing wrong with the heater. I knew what could happen if a gas heating system broke, as well as I wanted nothing to happen to my family. When the Heating, Ventilation and A/C serviceman arrived, she went all over the heater, however she found nothing wrong, then the only thing she found was that a mouse had chewed a hole in the gas line. Luckily, there were no open flames around the gas line, as well as no one had struck a match or caused a spark. The gas fumes would have lit quickly as well as possibly caused an explosion; She said the gas needed to be cleaned up properly, as well as the gas supplier would need to come back out as well as maintenance the gas line. She also recommended my buddy and I have an exterminator come out as well as get rid of the mice. I thanked the Heating, Ventilation and A/C serviceman as well as told him she may have been a lifesaver. She shook my hand as well as headed out the door, however now, my labor was going to begin, so I got on the iPhone to call the gas corporation, get someone to get rid of the gas that leaked into the ground, as well as an exterminator so it didn’t happen again.
