When connecting a gas appliance to the
gas cylinder, always ensure that the connection is made correctly and
is gas tight – a smell of gas will occur if the connection is not tight.
All gas appliances have rubber or fiber washers to seal the gas tightly
at the point of connection to the gas cylinder. Always check that this
washer or seal is in place and is in good condition as they wear over
time, and need to be checked periodically and replaced occasionally. It
is essential to keep the gas jets clean, and they should be inspected
for dust and dirt before the appliance is connected to the cylinder.
When turning the LP gas on, the valve
only needs to be turned one-and-a-half times. When lighting gas
appliances that don’t have auto ignition, first light a match or
lighter, hold it to the gas burner, then open the gas. The gas will
ignite immediately and the flame temperature will go from 0 °C to 1
970°C instantly.
Even on the
coldest winter nights, it is important to always have a window slightly
open in any room where a gas appliance is being used, in order to ensure
that fresh air is readily-available. When turning the appliance off for
the night, make sure to shut off the gas supply at the LPG cylinder,
which should always be placed on a firm and stable surface.
LPG appliances are subjected to the same
legal requirements as electrical installations. It is a legal
requirement that all fixed LPG appliances are fitted and piped to
outside gas cylinders, which must be installed by a certified LPG
installer.
Beware of rogue fillers. Whether
refilling an LPG cylinder for residential or industrial use, it is
important to go to authorized distributors, and thoroughly checking
cylinders for authenticity as cylinders are often illegally filled and
have been found to include a mixture of other contents that make their
product extremely dangerous.
