What Do You Think Of This Set Up?
What happens here
In the event of a suspected gas leak, quickly retrieve the readily available gas shut-off wrench. Position the appropriate opening of the wrench onto the stem of the gas shut-off valve located on the gas line, usually where it connects to the meter. Turn the valve a quarter turn (90 degrees) to the 'OFF' position, which typically aligns the valve handle perpendicular to the pipe. This action will immediately cease the flow of gas into the property. Remember, this tool and procedure are for gas leaks, not water leaks.
Goal: The video implicitly instructs that the gas shut-off wrench is to be used on the identified valve in the event of a gas leak.
