Stay Safe During Winter Weather with These Essential Tips.

As winter weather approaches, safety and preparation are key. Atmos Energy has shared valuable tips to help Benbrook residents stay warm and secure:

• Avoid Using Appliances for Heat: Never heat your home with an oven or gas stovetop.
• Clear Gas Meters Safely: Use a broom or brush to remove snow and ice. Avoid kicking or chipping away at buildup to prevent damage.
• Check Appliance Vents: Ensure external vents for dryers and gas appliances are free from obstructions.
• Prevent Frozen Pipes: Let faucets trickle, open cabinet doors, and keep windows and doors closed to retain heat.

What to Do if You Smell Gas:
If you detect a gas odor, leave the area immediately. From a safe location, call 911 and Atmos Energy’s emergency number at 866-322-8667.
