Safety
Propane is an affordable and efficient energy solution to power and warm your home or farm. But improperly handled propane can cost your home, business, farm and even your life. That’s why it’s crucial to follow propane safety best practises and use caution while handling propane or fuel tanks.
Some propane safety measures to take while handling propane tanks:
- It’s wise to avoid storing portable propane tanks in basement or living space.
- Another propane safety measure is to never leave portable propane or fuel oil and kerosene tanks in closed vehicles.
- Always secure portable propane or fuel oil and kerosene tanks while transporting.
- Make sure to contact experienced propane or fuel oil and kerosene service retailers to connect tanks to appliances.
- Do not use propane gas for BBQ grills inside the house or enclosed area.
- One of the important propane safety measures is to never use propane stoves for space heating purposes.
What to do when you smell gas!
- If you ever smell gas, immediately extinguish all smoking materials.
- In case you suspect leakage of propane gas, get everyone out of the surrounding area.
- Make sure to turn off all supply gas of your propane tanks.
- In case of emergency, if you cannot reach 911, make sure to call your propane supplier once you are away from the leak.
- Unless your emergency responders declare the area to be safe and secure, do not return to the area.
- Always check your heating system. Ask your propane retailers to check for leaks before using any of your propane appliances.
