How to report gas problems in Sparks
Gas service in Sparks, Nevada is listed under: Southwest Gas. Use the 24-hour emergency number on your bill for outages.
Smell gas? If you notice a rotten-egg smell, leave the building right away. Do not use light switches or phones inside. Call 911 or the gas emergency line from a safe distance.
If your gas is off in Sparks
- Rule out a leak first. Any rotten-egg smell means leave now and call from outside.
- Check more than one appliance. If the stove lights but the furnace does not, it is probably the appliance, not the supply.
- Look for a notice on your door or meter. Planned work and safety shutoffs are usually tagged.
- Call Southwest Gas and ask whether work is scheduled at your address. Plan to be home: a technician often has to restore service in person.
- Heat safely while you wait. Never use a gas oven, grill or outdoor heater to warm the house.
Why gas takes longer to restore than electricity, how relighting works, and cold-weather planning are covered in our natural gas outage guide.
