Gas and Propane Shut-Off Valves

This one-minute video provides basic instructions for shutting down the gas supply to gas appliances in the event of an emergency. 

In most cases the main shut-off is located at the exterior of the home at the main service component, and can easily be turned off rotating the valve 90 degrees with a wrench or a large pair of pliers. Some homeowners keep a wrench or pliers near the main shut-off for easy access in emergencies.
