Default What is an emergency switch outside a utility room supposed to befor?

The switch has a red plate with the words EMERGENCY SWITCH on it. There
are 3 gas appliances in the room: a gas heater, a gas water heater, and
a gas dryer.

Is the switch for a particular one of the appliances in the room, or is
it for the whole room? Under what circumstances should the switch be used?

Thanks.
