Detecting leaky gas

Comments about Bacharach Leakator Jr Combustion Gas Leak Detector:

This device detected several gas leaks in gas lines and valves to my stove, furnace and water heater. I kept smelling gas in my kitchen and had just bought a new stove that would make a loud poof when the oven cycled the valve. A service tech came over [...] and used his gas detector and found nothing. When I used the Leakator Jr. it immeadiately found gas coming out of the gas shut off valve. Replaced valve and no more smell or poofs. I will tend to the other leaks soon. Seems to be more sensitive than others. It was rather pricey but a gas explosion could be alot more expensive and dangerous. Will use it on my rental properties also. Shipping was fast! Good product.

Comments about Bacharach Leakator Jr Combustion Gas Leak Detector:

I used this to find a gas leak that we could smell but never locate with any other means. Later I used it to find a very hazardous leak in a pilot light system on my RV. Worth every penny. Would purchase this again.
