Featuring a 12-inch flexible sensor neck, adjustable sensitivity dial, and dual visual/audio alarms, it enables precise leak detection in confined or hard-to-reach spaces. Supported by a lifetime replacement warranty and expert technical assistance, it’s the essential tool for professionals and homeowners who prioritize safety and proactive maintenance. ## Description Product Description FIND ANY GAS LEAKS AT HOME OR PROFESSIONALLY Pinpoint the location of any natural gas, propane, LP, fuel, or other combustible gas leaks by running sensor probe along a gas pipe, fuel line, or fittings near any gas smells. Locate fuel leaks from your lawnmower or car. Even find the source of malodorous sewer gas or other combustible gas leaks with this gas leak detector. Gas leak is found when alarm sounds and LEDs light up. Don't pay a technician hundreds in diagnostic and other fees when you can find a gas leak anytime with this propane & natural gas leak detector. HOW TO QUICKLY DETECT GAS LEAKS? To detect leaks while minimizing false alarms, turn the sensitivity dial upward toward (+) until the device begins to alarm. Turn sensitivity dial downward (-) slightly until alarm stops and 1st LED just turns off. Now, any small increase of gas level (as from a leak!) will cause the alarm to sound. If alarm sounds prematurely before a leak is found, sensitivity needs to be decreased to prevent false alarms. Each leak varies in leak rate and background gas concentration, so adjust sensitivity level to find any leak. Calibrating sensitivity level in the same room as the gas leak will help refine the sensitivity level by filtering out any background gas. Allow device to warm up sensor for 10 seconds until yellow “Warm Up” light turns off.

Review: Simply brilliant - and potentially life saving - We’ve just had our gas meter exchanged this week and, during the exchange, they tested the supply for leaks. Anything more than a 4 millibar drop in pressure results in the engineer immediately shutting off the supply. Ours was a 3 millibar drop; not an emergency, but enough to warrant attention. We only moved in a few weeks ago and noticed a slight gas smell in the kitchen and it would make sense, if there was a leak, that that’s where it would be as our only gas appliances (boiler, hob, range) are all in that room. I followed the instructions and let this warm up outside, adjusted the sensitivity so the first led was just not appearing, took a step into the kitchen and the alarm started going off. What I was amazed at however was how easily I was able to locate and confirm a gas leak from behind the range. An engineer will be called and we’ll get this sorted. Video of this in action attached - it’s incredibly easy and simple to use. Very, very impressed!!! Review: Brilliant little device. Could be a lifesaver! - I had builders in recently and the gas pipework was altered. I've had the odd little whiff of gas every now and then while doing some work in the cupboard, but didn't think much of it. Then I noticed I was waking up feeling dizzy. I ordered one of these, found the leak straight away, and had the builder back here to fix it within the hour. It's worth noting that the first thing he did was spray it with soapy water, and my detector could no longer find a leak after that, so make sure you test it whilst dry. It's as simple as turning it on outside and turning the sensitivity dial down to where the alarm stops. Then just move it around the suspected areas. I tested it with a lighter too, which proved it worked. If nothing else, the peace of mind this brings is worth the price tag alone. I was sceptical of the cheap yellow housing, but It helped me pinpoint a leak without relying on someone else who may have missed it. Obviously if you smell gas, you should call the gas network immediately, but this is handy to confirm your suspicions. ## Features - MULTIPLE DETECTABLE GASES: Locates combustible & explosive gas leaks from methane / natural gas, propane, fuel, ethane, butane, alcohol, coal gas, gasoline, toluene, kerosene, sewer gas, and other flammable gases. - FLEXIBLE & PORTABLE GAS LEAK DETECTOR: Bend 12-inch length sensor neck in any direction along gas pipes & fuel lines or within confined spaces. Powered by 3 AAA batteries, this portable gas detector sniffer can be taken anywhere to find leaks outdoors or indoors. - VISUAL / AUDIO GAS INDICATORS: 6 LEDs with 85dB alarm notify user of presence and relative concentrations of natural gas & propane leaks. - ADJUSTABLE SENSITIVITY: Increase sensitivity dial to find small gas leaks. Decrease sensitivity to find larger explosive gas leaks while filtering out false alarms from background gas levels. - LIFETIME WARRANTY + ORIGINAL DESIGN: We stand fully behind this product and will replace it if it ever breaks! We have an English fluent chemist on staff to answer any technical questions. Also included is a 20+ page eBook on Gas and Air Quality Hazards. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07FSVCSSL | | Alarm | Visual | | Best Sellers Rank | 171,714 in DIY & Tools ( See Top 100 in DIY & Tools ) 80 in Gas Detectors | | Brand | EG | | Colour | Yellow | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 8,714 Reviews | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 2.5D x 6.9W x 15H centimetres | | Manufacturer | Yeezou | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | Lifetime product replacement warranty - we (yeezou / eg air) will replace your item without cost if it does not detect combustible gases any time after purchase; please be sure sensitivity is set correctly using test gas leak.

You need a clean water test kit for checking for water pollution. **Q: Can this detect isobutane (R600a)?** A: Butane is listed so assume isobutane would almost certainly be detected too. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Simply brilliant - and potentially life saving *by F***R on 31 March 2022* We’ve just had our gas meter exchanged this week and, during the exchange, they tested the supply for leaks.

My suspected leak was from a gas barbecue so I was able to disconnect and take the whole cylinder outside its storage place. I have not tested the sniffer on the gas cylinder but did so on the gas hob in the house. This worked fine, as I thought it might. There are simple, clear instructions to get it working; always a bonus. I view the purchase as an insurance policy. I now know I have a product in which I place my trust should I need it in the future. I have suspected a gas boiler leak before so would have welcomed having this earlier and is the reason I went for this. As a tip and why it got 4 stars for me is because the three AAA batteries it needed to work were not included. Overall, a good purchase and in some ways one I hope is never needed. ## Frequently Bought Together - Gas Leak Detector – Portable Natural Gas Sniffer for Propane, Methane, LPG, LNG, Fuel & Sewer Gas – Combustible Gas Detector with 12" Flexible Probe for Home, RV, Industrial Use - FBLFOBELI EVA Hard Storage Case for Techamor/VITITE Y201 Methane Propane Combustible Natural Gas Leak Sniffer Detector (Case Only) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/109440604-y201-propane-and-natural-gas-leak-detector-portable-gas-sniffer](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/109440604-y201-propane-and-natural-gas-leak-detector-portable-gas-sniffer) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-08-26*
