Gas Leak vs. Gas Build-Up⚠️ Days after a home exploded in Lake County, fire officials have confirmed that a build up of gas in the kitchen caused it. Lake County Fire Rescue Chief, Mike Vitta, said the explosion at the home in Mount Dora was an accident. “You could have a gas buildup secondary to a leak, but to clarify, there was no malfunctions on any of the gas appliances,” Vitta said. “The regulators and all the gas appliances were functioning as intended.
