I had a gas stove installed by Lowe’s. The guys that installed it couldn’t figure out how to get the gas to stop leaking, but wouldn’t admit they had no idea what they were doing. They told me I would have to turn the gas valve off at the connection when I wasn’t using the stove
I stopped trying to explain and let them leave, because I was over it. Installed the connection myself, I was just happy I didn’t have to move it or the old one
I did call Lowe’s and let them know about it though, so that those guys wouldn’t inadvertently kill someone with their installations
Just install a barbeque lighter near the leak and set a timer to regularly light it and just flare off anything that has leaked since the previous flare. Then, when rebuilding after the fire, add a pressure sensor to the new setup that reduces the interval if the pressure increases beyond what it was when the interval was first calibrated.

Caught me off guard, lmao.
Yeah that seems like a minor problem lol
In the old days of town gas this would actually kill everybody since that stuff was just hydrogen mixed with carbon monoxide.
