Earlier today, Monroe Twp. Station-57 responded to a residence with a smell of natural gas inside. Upon arrival and investigation it was determined that snow shoveling caused the house’s gas meter to be covered in snow resulting in the meter not being able to vent properly.

Heavy snow can block household vents like furnace, dryer, and water heater exhausts. Take a few minutes to check and clear vents around your home to prevent carbon monoxide buildup and fire hazards.
