When gas escapes in an open area, it naturally rises and quickly dissipates, unlike propane and gasoline which are heavier than air and tend to pool on the ground. When natural gas appliances are operating properly, there is a clean blue flame. The blue flame is a sign that complete combustion is taking place.
Natural gas is a convenient, economical, environmentally clean fuel that is widely used.
It is also one of the safest fuels available for a wide range of uses including space and water heating, cooking, clothes drying, space cooling, industrial processes and even powering vehicles.
