Odorless

Natural gas is odorless in its natural form.  Before it arrives at your home, an odorant called mercaptan is added to it, so you can smell the gas immediately if a leak occurs.  Mercaptan makes the gas smell like sulfur or “rotten eggs”.  Everyone in your family should learn to recognize this smell.
