Severe Weather Safety

Be Safe, Not Sorry!When severe weather threatens your community, the well-trained professionals at Atlanta Gas Light are ready.  Our employees participate in severe weather drills, and their training prepares them so that your home and business will have safe, reliable natural gas service.

In times of bad weather, here is what you need to know about your natural gas service:

  • During severe weather, do not turn the natural gas off to your home or business, even if evacuated.
  • If you smell natural gas, immediately leave the house and call our 24-hour emergency response line, at Inside Metro Atlanta: 770-907-4231 / Outside Metro Atlanta: 1-877-427-4321.
  • NEVER try to identify the source of a natural gas leak yourself.
  • After severe weather, if a natural gas meter is damaged by fallen debris or is under water or you do not have gas service, immediately report it by calling our 24-hour emergency response line at Inside Metro Atlanta: 770-907-4231 / Outside Metro Atlanta: 1-877-427-4321.

At Atlanta Gas Light we want you and your family to be safe during hurricane season, which lasts through Nov. 30.  As the National Hurricane Center says, "Preparation through education is less costly than learning through tragedy."

No Power?  No Problem! When severe weather hits and you lose power for days or even weeks, natural gas appliances like water heaters and ranges still work.  And for the best defense against power outages, we recommed a natural gas generator.  You'll have enough power to run all of your appliances and even your air conditioning.  Visit our online store for the latest in natural gas appliances and generators.
