Explanation
แก๊สรั่ว consists of แก๊ส “gas” and รั่ว “to leak.” Depending on the sentence, it can function as a noun meaning “a gas leak” or as a statement meaning “gas is leaking.” แก๊ส is a loanword commonly used in everyday Thai. The spelling ก๊าซรั่ว is also frequent in official notices and technical writing.
Usage
Used to report, check for, or warn about leaking gas from stoves, cylinders, kitchen equipment, factory machinery, or pipelines. It also appears in accident reports and emergency calls.
