Sorry only just noticed this, the standard gas alarm clips are for toxic odourless gases, you would probably be better getting one that monitors the oxygen level, they alarm when it goes below 20%. The carbon monoxide and hydrogen sulphide alarms are used when working in confined spaces. They need calibrating annually which is very expensive.
Natural gas has odour added to it so you can smell it. Why do you think you need one??
Heres an o2 monitor,
