Keep Your Family Safe: Easy Tips to Protect Your Natural Gas Meter
Keeping your natural gas meter in good condition is an essential part of home safety. Follow these simple tips to help keep your family safe:
- Keep it clear: Ensure the area around your meter is clutter-free for easy access.
- Don’t stack items: Avoid placing anything on the meter — it must stay uncovered and unobstructed.
- Protect it from vehicles: If your meter is near a driveway or parking area, shield it from accidental bumps or collisions.
- Plant Smart: Avoid planting trees, shrubs, or bushes within three feet of your meter — root growth can cause damage over time.
