*Gas Types

There are two types of gas that can be used for household purposes- city gas and propane gas. It depends on the area where you live as to what kind of gas will be available for your household. Using appliances that are not suited to the type of gas being supplied is very dangerous, so be sure to check with your landlord in advance.

Additional Notes

Gas

If you notice any gas irregularities

If you notice any gas irregularities close the gas valve immediately, open the windows, and do not use any flames in the house. Do not touch the switch or plug of any electrical appliances. Since propane gas is heavier than air you can use a broom to sweep out the gas.

Water

When you move

Please contact the Water Services Center to advise that you are moving out of your current residence 2 days to 1 week before moving out. If you do not contact the Water Service Center you will continue to be charged even if you are not using the services.

If you notice any water irregularities

Contact your landlord or one of the following places.
(Water leaks, water stoppage, strange colored water, particles in the water, etc.)
