If You Smell Gas


NO FLAMES OR SPARKS!​
Immediately ​put out all smoking materials and other​ open flames. Do not operate lights,​ appliances, telephones, or cell phones.​ Flames or sparks from these sources​ can trigger an explosion or a fire.​

LEAVE THE AREA IMMEDIATELY!​
Get everyone out of the building or area where​ you suspect gas is leaking.​

​SHUT OFF THE GAS.​
Turn off the main gas supply ​valve on your propane tank, if it is safe to do so. ​To close the valve, turn it to the right (clockwise).​

​REPORT THE LEAK.​
From a neighbor’s home​ or other nearby building away from the gas leak,​ call your propane retailer right away. If you can’t ​reach your propane retailer, call 911 or your local​ fire department. ​

​DO NOT RETURN TO THE BUILDING OR AREA
until your propane retailer determines that it is ​safe to do so.​

​GET YOUR SYSTEM CHECKED.​
Before you attempt to use any of your propane appliances, ​your propane retailer or a qualified service technician ​must check your entire system to ensure that it ​is leak-free.​
