IF YOU SMELL GAS in your home, camper, workplace or around any gas equipment…
1. Put out smoking materials and other open flames.
2. Do Not:
· Operate electrical switches
· Light matches
· Use your phone
Any spark or flame in the area where propane gas is present may ignite the gas. This could include a spark in a light switch, telephone, appliance motor and even static electricity from walking around the room.
3. Immediately get everyone out of the building vehicle, R V trailer or area.
4. Close all gas tank or cylinder supply valves.
5. Do not re-enter the building, vehicle, R V trailer or area. Use your neighbor’s phone and call a trained LP Gas service person and the fire department. Even though you may not continue to smell gas, do not turn on the gas again.
6. Let the service person and firefighters check for propane gas leaks. Have them air out the area before you return.
7. Have properly trained LP Gas service people repair the leak, then check and relight all of your propane gas appliances for you.
IMPORTANT SAFETY REMINDERS
· Don’t enter an area where you suspect a gas leak. If you are in such an area, leave immediately!
· Be alert for propane odor when working in areas where propane is used. Even a faint odor may indicate a hazardous situation. If you suspect a gas leak, refer to #2 above.
· Do not try to judge for yourself the level of danger of a gas leak by trying to determine if one smell of gas is weak or strong. All gas leaks pose a serious risk.
· Repeated pilot outages could indicate a hazardous condition. Don’t attempt to relight the pilot, or service your equipment. Call your Propane Dealer.
· If you choose to light your own pilots, call your Propane Dealer for instructions.
· Before lighting a propane gas appliance, sniff around the area at floor level. If you smell gas, don’t light the appliance!
· Shut the gas off immediately at the tank if your appliance has been flooded. Do not use your gas system again until the wet or flooded equipment has been checked and serviced.
· Improperly vented or defective appliances can cause potentially fatal carbon monoxide poisoning. Have your propane system and appliances periodically inspected by your Propane Dealer.
· Don’t tamper with or use tools to operate controls. If controls are difficult to operate by hand, call your Propane Dealer immediately.
· Keep combustible products, like gasoline, kerosene or cleaners in a separate room from propane appliances. Your appliance pilot lights could ignite fumes from these combustibles.
· Don’t operate any propane gas appliance without reading the instructions carefully.
