Such risks and expenses presumably include the dangers of using natural gas within a home for heat or to run appliances and the costs of purchasing equipment necessary to harness the natural gas for domestic purposes. But cf. Weiss v. Thomas & Thomas Dev. Co., 79 Ohio St.3d 274, 680 N.E.2d 1239, 1242–43 (1997) (holding the lessee, in providing free gas to the lessor, owed the lessor the same duty of care as a regulated public utility would owe its customers, despite express lease language placing the risk of using the gas on the lessor). Interpretation of the clause in this manner is consistent with and gives further meaning to the “for stoves and inside lighting” provision.
