Are natural gas kitchen risers safe at home?

The national gas construction code stipulates that the building gas riser (the supervisor of the unit) can be on the outer wall of the building, or it can pass through the indoor floor slab, which is called "outdoor riser" on the outer wall and "indoor riser" through the floor slab, and the indoor riser usually passes through the well-ventilated kitchen position (well-ventilated means that there is a kitchen window leading directly to the atmosphere, and the kitchen is separated by a door). The specification also clearly stipulates that the gas pipeline is not allowed to pass through the bathroom, bedroom, and living room, and the gas pipeline shall not be encapsulated when the user decorates. For your own safety, it is best not to use an open kitchen, the kitchen is isolated by a door, even in winter, you can open a little window for ventilation, but the open kitchen will not necessarily open the window.

Every year, natural gas companies regularly visit homes to conduct safety inspections of indoor gas pipelines and equipment, including gas leak testing, which should be safe. If you feel that there is a gas leak, you can report it to the gas company and ask them to go for a gas leak test.
