If you suspect a gas leak, you should leave your home immediately.<\/p>\n<p>You need to stay as comfortable and safe as possible while you wait for an emergency HVAC technician. In the summer, dress in light layers, turn on your ceiling fans, and close all window coverings during the day. In winter, we recommend bundling in layers, using extra blankets, and turning on space heaters, but only in occupied rooms.<\/p>\n<h2>Choose Len The Plumber Heating &amp; Air<\/h2>\n<p>When you need the best <a href=\"https:\/\/lentheplumber.com\/washington-dc-area\/heating\/\">heating<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/lentheplumber.com\/washington-dc-area\/air-conditioning\/\">AC services<\/a> in Washington, D.C., choose Len The Plumber Heating &amp; Air.
