Your Safety is our First Priority

Propane is a safe and efficient fuel, but below are a few facts and safety measures to help make you aware of the steps to take in the event of an unlikely problem with your propane system, just in case there ever is one.

Propane has an odorant added to ensure that you could smell it in the event of a leak. Many people say it smells like rotten eggs. If you can't identify the smell of propane, call us for a scratch 'n sniff brochure, or next time our technician is out, ask him. There are certain things that may reduce your ability to detect the smell of propane, for instance if you are ill, or if you've had prolonged exposure.

If you ever suspect that there's a propane leak in your home, leave the building immediately. Use the shut-off valve on your tank to turn the gas off. Go to a neighbor's to use the phone and call us. Do not re-enter your home until a professional has told you it's okay to do so. Do not attempt to relight any pilot lights, we'll take care of that as well.

It's a good idea to have your propane system checked from time to time. If you'd like to schedule a systems check, give us a call at 1-800-728-2285.
