SAFETY INFORMATION FOR USERS OF LP-GAS
Propane (LP-Gas) is a īƒ€ammable gas which can cause ī‚æres
and explosions. In its natural state, propane is odorless and
colorless. You may not know all the following safety precautions
which can protect both you and your family from an accident.
Read them carefully now, then review them point by point with
the members of your household. Someday when there may not
be a minute to lose, everyoneā€™s safety will depend on knowing
exactly what to do. If, after reading the following information,
you feel you still need more information, please contact your
gas supplier.
LP-GAS WARNING ODOR
If a gas leak happens, you should be able to smell the gas
because of the odorant put in the LP-Gas.
That's your signal to go into immediate action!
ā€¢ī€ƒ Doī€ƒnotī€ƒoperateī€ƒelectricī€ƒswitches,ī€ƒlightī€ƒmatches,ī€ƒuseī€ƒyourī€ƒphone.ī€ƒ
Doī€ƒnotī€ƒdoī€ƒanythingī€ƒthatī€ƒcouldī€ƒigniteī€ƒtheī€ƒgas.
ā€¢ī€ƒī€ƒ Getī€ƒeveryoneī€ƒoutī€ƒofī€ƒtheī€ƒbuilding,ī€ƒvehicle,ī€ƒtrailer,ī€ƒorī€ƒarea.ī€ƒDoī€ƒ
thatī€ƒIMMEDIATELY.
ā€¢ī€ƒī€ƒ Closeī€ƒallī€ƒgasī€ƒtankī€ƒorī€ƒcylinderī€ƒsupplyī€ƒvalves.
ā€¢ī€ƒī€ƒ LP-Gasī€ƒisī€ƒheavierī€ƒthanī€ƒairī€ƒandī€ƒmayī€ƒsettleī€ƒinī€ƒlowī€ƒareasī€ƒsuchī€ƒasī€ƒ
basements.ī€ƒWhenī€ƒyouī€ƒhaveī€ƒreasonī€ƒtoī€ƒsuspectī€ƒaī€ƒgasī€ƒleak,ī€ƒkeepī€ƒ
outī€ƒofī€ƒbasementsī€ƒandī€ƒotherī€ƒlowī€ƒareas.ī€ƒStayī€ƒoutī€ƒuntilī€ƒī‚æreī‚æghtersī€ƒ
declare them to be safe.
ā€¢ī€ƒī€ƒ Useī€ƒyourī€ƒneighborā€™sī€ƒphoneī€ƒandī€ƒcallī€ƒaī€ƒtrainedī€ƒLP-Gasī€ƒserviceī€ƒ
personī€ƒ andī€ƒ theī€ƒ ī‚æreī€ƒ department.ī€ƒ Evenī€ƒ thoughī€ƒ youī€ƒ mayī€ƒ notī€ƒ
continueī€ƒtoī€ƒsmellī€ƒgas,ī€ƒdoī€ƒnotī€ƒturnī€ƒonī€ƒtheī€ƒgasī€ƒagain.ī€ƒDoī€ƒnotī€ƒ
re-enterī€ƒtheī€ƒbuilding,ī€ƒvehicle,ī€ƒtrailer,ī€ƒorī€ƒarea.
ā€¢ī€ƒī€ƒ Finally, letī€ƒtheī€ƒserviceī€ƒmanī€ƒandī€ƒī‚æreī‚æghtersī€ƒcheckī€ƒforī€ƒescapedī€ƒ
gas.ī€ƒHaveī€ƒthemī€ƒairī€ƒoutī€ƒtheī€ƒareaī€ƒbeforeī€ƒyouī€ƒreturn.ī€ƒProperlyī€ƒ
trainedī€ƒ LP-Gasī€ƒ serviceī€ƒ peopleī€ƒ shouldī€ƒ repairī€ƒ theī€ƒ leak,ī€ƒ thenī€ƒ
checkī€ƒandī€ƒrelightī€ƒtheī€ƒgasī€ƒī‚æreplaceī€ƒforī€ƒyou.
NO ODOR DETECTED - ODOR FADE
Some people cannot smell well. Some people cannot smell
the odor of the chemical put into the gas. You must ī‚ænd out if
you can smell the odorant in propane.ī€ƒSmokingī€ƒcanī€ƒdecreaseī€ƒ
yourī€ƒabilityī€ƒtoī€ƒsmell.ī€ƒBeingī€ƒaroundī€ƒanī€ƒodorī€ƒforī€ƒaī€ƒtimeī€ƒcanī€ƒaffectī€ƒyourī€ƒ
sensitivity or ability to detect that odor. Sometimes other odors in
theī€ƒareaī€ƒmaskī€ƒtheī€ƒgasī€ƒodor.ī€ƒPeopleī€ƒmayī€ƒnotī€ƒsmellī€ƒtheī€ƒgasī€ƒodorī€ƒorī€ƒ
theirī€ƒmindsī€ƒareī€ƒonī€ƒsomethingī€ƒelse.ī€ƒThinkingī€ƒaboutī€ƒsmellingī€ƒaī€ƒgasī€ƒ
odorī€ƒcanī€ƒmakeī€ƒitī€ƒeasierī€ƒtoī€ƒsmell.
The odorant in LP-gas is colorless, and it can fade under some
circumstances. Forī€ƒexample,ī€ƒifī€ƒthereī€ƒisī€ƒanī€ƒundergroundī€ƒleak,ī€ƒtheī€ƒ
movementī€ƒofī€ƒtheī€ƒgasī€ƒthroughī€ƒsoilī€ƒcanī€ƒī‚ælterī€ƒtheī€ƒodorant.ī€ƒOdorantsī€ƒinī€ƒ

isī€ƒrustī€ƒinsideī€ƒtheī€ƒstorageī€ƒtankī€ƒorī€ƒinī€ƒironī€ƒgasī€ƒpipes.
The odorant in escaped gas can adsorb or absorb onto or into
walls,ī€ƒmasonryī€ƒandī€ƒotherī€ƒmaterialsī€ƒandī€ƒfabricsī€ƒinī€ƒaī€ƒroom.ī€ƒThatī€ƒwillī€ƒ
takeī€ƒsomeī€ƒofī€ƒtheī€ƒodorantī€ƒoutī€ƒofī€ƒtheī€ƒgas,ī€ƒreducingī€ƒitsī€ƒodorī€ƒintensity.
LP-Gasī€ƒmayī€ƒstratifyī€ƒinī€ƒaī€ƒclosedī€ƒarea,ī€ƒandī€ƒtheī€ƒodorī€ƒintensityī€ƒcouldī€ƒ
vary at different levels. Since it is heavier than air, there may be
moreī€ƒodorī€ƒatī€ƒlowerī€ƒlevels.ī€ƒAlwaysī€ƒbeī€ƒsensitiveī€ƒtoī€ƒtheī€ƒslightestī€ƒgasī€ƒ
odor.ī€ƒIfī€ƒyouī€ƒdetectī€ƒanyī€ƒodor,ī€ƒtreatī€ƒitī€ƒasī€ƒaī€ƒseriousī€ƒleak.ī€ƒImmediatelyī€ƒ
go into action as instructed earlier.
