EMERGENCY ADVICE
†
| GAS |
If you smell gas :- Call the National
Grid on 0800 111 999!
A call handling agent will log all the appropriate details
onto a computer. The kind of information you'll be asked
for will include:
•
The address/location of the suspected gas escape or gas
emergency
•
How many people are at the property where the smell is
most noticeable?
•
How long the smell has been noticeable?
•
Are any neighbours affected?
•
Your name and phone number
•
Any special circumstances or access information
Getting accurate address details is very important as
we want to make sure we send engineers to exactly the
right place. You will be asked to verify these details
for this very reason. Your address and postcode are particularly
important.
You'll be asked a series of questions designed to help
us build a picture of the reported gas escape or gas emergency.
From these details, we can identify the right gas safety
advice for you - such as:
•
Opening doors and windows
•
Turning the gas off at the meter
•
Avoiding the use of any naked flames or electrical switches

| PLUMBING |
In the event of a plumbing emergency
within you home - Call 0800 037 6525.
If water is leaking from the pipework or central heating
system:-
Immediately turn OFF the water supply to your home at
the stop cock by turning the handle CLOCKWISE. This will
stop any further damage to your property.
NOTE:
It is good idea to familiarise yourself with the location
and operation of the stop-cock in the event of an emergency
|
| DRAINAGE |
| In the event of a drainage emergency
at your home - Call 0800 037 6525.
Drainage problems can be hazardous, unhygenic and downright
smelly! If there is a blocked drain then the water willfind
a way out or up! Triple Point can clear most drains
within the hour.*
NOTE: To minimise the possibility of a blockage do
not put items down drains/toilets that cannot easily
breakup in water (eg food and disposable nappies).
Remember that you are responsible for the drains outside
your home that are within your property boundaries.
* depends on circumstances |
| ELECTRICITY |
In the event of an electrical emergency
within your home, switch off the electricity at the fuse
box.
NOTE: DO NOT USE ANY ELECTRICAL SWITCHES
IF THERE IS ALSO A GAS
EMERGENCY.

home - Call the National Grid on 0800 40 40 90!
