Gas(ガス)

In Higashihiroshima City, propane gas and natural gas are supplied.
Depending on the type of gas supplied to your accommodation, the appliances you can use are different, so when purchasing appliances it is necessary to check.
When you move into your accommodation, you need to contact the gas supplier that supplies gas to the accommodation you have rented, and have a member of staff come to start the gas supply.
When the gas supply is started, the resident (or a proxy) must be present. Please check in advance with the manager of your accommodation about what you should do.
