One of the main causes is corrosion of gas pipes, which can occur over time because of exposure to moisture, chemicals, or other environmental factors. Another common cause is from construction or excavation work, such as when digging in the yard. Additionally, gas leaks can be caused by malfunctioning gas appliances, such as a stove, furnace, or water heater, which can develop leaks over time due to wear and tear. They can also be caused by human error, such as improper installation of gas appliances or failure to maintain and repair them.
