Preparing for a Flood If you suspect any natural gas appliances might become submerged from flood water or sewer back-up, consider following these steps: Hire a licensed gas contractor to ‘shut off’ the gas at the supply valve to natural gas appliances that may be affected. Relocate appliances to a dry location by raising them above potential water levels, to upper floors or other suitable storage areas. Have your contractor cap and properly seal the gas pipe ends (appliance gas supply line) to all affected appliances to prevent water from entering the piping system. Shut off the electrical...

Natural gas prices can fluctuate The commodity rate is the Gas Consumption Charge on your bill. SaskEnergy follows the regulatory standard practice to recover the cost of natural gas sold to customers without any markup. As a utility, we should not incur a profit or a loss on the sale of natural gas. As natural gas prices fluctuate, the cost of buying natural gas each month varies. Because we don't know the total cost of gas for a particular period of time, SaskEnergy uses a Gas Cost Variance Account (GCVA) to balance the changes in costs and revenues over time. This approach helps provide you...

What you need to know Carbon monoxide (CO) is an odourless, colourless, tasteless and invisible gas that occurs through combustion, or the process of burning.

Any appliance that burns fuel can cause CO build-up, including fireplaces, gas stoves, water heaters, furnaces, grills, generators or car engines. CO poisoning can happen to anyone but some people are more susceptible than others. Elderly, infants and those with heart or respiratory...

Grain Drying When weather doesn't cooperate, a natural gas grain dryer can extend your harvest season. Grain quality counts and a dryer can ensure your grain ends up in the bin instead of left in the field. Benefits of using natural gas versus other energy options include: Lower fuel costs Convenience of not dealing with tanks or the need to refuel Reduced drying time Less greenhouse gas emissions Fuel Consumption In Saskatchewan, the typical grain drying temperature is 10 degrees Celsius. Using heat to dry the grain during the fall season prior to below zero temperatures will reduce drying...
