•
Learn to recognize the odor of Propane Gas.
Your local Propane Gas Dealer can give you
a "Scratch and Sniff" pamphlet. Use it to
find out what the propane odor smells like.
If you suspect that your Propane Gas has a
weak or abnormal odor, call your Propane
Gas Dealer.
•
If you are not qualified, do not light pilot
lights, perform service, or make adjustments
to appliances on the Propane Gas system.
If you are qualified, consciously think about
the odor of Propane Gas prior to and while
lighting pilot lights or performing service or
making adjustments.
•
Sometimes a basement or a closed-up house
has a musty smell that can cover up the
Propane Gas odor. Do not try to light pilot
lights, perform service, or make adjustments
in an area where the conditions are such
that you may not detect the odor if there
has been a leak of Propane Gas.
•
Odor fade, due to oxidation by rust or
adsorption on walls of new cylinders and
tanks, is possible. Therefore, people should
be particularly alert and careful when new
tanks or cylinders are placed in service.
Odor fade can occur in new tanks, or
reinstalled old tanks, if they are filled and
allowed to set too long before refilling.
Cylinders and tanks which have been out of
service for a time may develop internal rust
which will cause odor fade. If such conditions
are suspected to exist, a periodic sniff test of
the gas is advisable. If you have any question
about the gas odor, call your Propane Gas
Dealer. A periodic sniff test of the Propane
Gas is a good safety measure under any
condition.
If, at any time, you do not smell the Propane
Gas odorant and you think you should,
assume you have a leak. Then take the same
immediate action recommended above
for the occasion when you do detect the
odorized Propane Gas.
•
If you experience a complete "gas out," (the
SOME POINTS TO REMEMBER
container is under no vapor pressure),
turn the tank valve off immediately. If the
container valve is left on, the container
may draw in some air through openings
such as pilot light orifices. If this occurs,
some new internal rusting could occur.
If the valve is left open, then treat the
container as a new tank. Always be sure
your container is under vapor pressure
by turning it off at the container before
it goes completely empty or having it
refilled before it is completely empty.
