LPG is efficient and reliable — but also highly flammable. Safe storage and handling are non‑negotiable.
Proper Cylinder Storage
- Store LPG cylinders upright, not rolled or laid flat.
- Keep storage outdoors or in well‑ventilated spaces away from heat and ignition sources
- Avoid storing more than three cylinders together; keep distance from children and combustible materials
Safe Transportation Practices
- Always transport cylinders upright and secured — never dragged or rolled.
- Use appropriate vehicles designed for LPG transport with proper ventilation
Leak Detection & Inspection
- Use soapy water solution to test for leaks—never use flames to detect gas leaks
- Inspect the O‑ring seal, hoses, regulators, and valve before use. Replace damaged parts immediately
Safe Usage Guidelines
- Always turn off the regulator when not in use. Do not leave appliances unattended.
- Maintain fire extinguishers nearby and install smoke detectors in indoor settings.
Training and Professional Support
- Purchase equipment from licensed distributors and follow operating instructions.
- Use certified technicians for installation, refill, and inspection services.
Conclusion
Adhering to proper LPG safety protocols ensures the well‑being of users, property, and the environment. Education, inspection, and professional support are critical.
