Well, the wall heater was leaking carbon monoxide. Lucky I got the plumber to have a look today.
And apparently the valve with the gas meter is fucked so if it needs to be turned off in case of emergency it can't be.
Thankfully my landlord is a decent guy and gets stuff fixed fairly quickly but still. Jesus christ.
Edit: cost $300 bucks to get it capped off. Jesus fucking christ.
Spoke to the energy retailer. The jobs been raised and someone will be out to fix the gas meter asap
Oh wow, so glad you got that sorted quickly
I'm incredibly paranoid about stuff like this. Last thing I need is to end up dead or laid up in hospital staring at the walls.
It’s something you need to be paranoid about! One of my friends wound up in hospital after CO exposure due to a dodgy heater exhaust. It’s definitely not worth taking any risks
