Top 5 Safety Tips

  • Grilling With Propane

    Follow your grill manufacturer's instructions for assembly, use, maintenance, cleaning and storage. Also, remember to place your grill in a safe location. Preferably, at least five feet away from your house or other hazards. Always be present and never leave your grill unattended.
  • Suspect a Gas Leak?

    Do not operate lights or phones. Leave the area, go outside and remove everyone from the building. Propane has an odor that smells like rotten eggs. If you smell this and it is safe to do so, immediately shut-off the main gas valve to your propane tank and call 911. Stay away from the building until your propane retailer says it's safe to re-enter.
  • Call 811 Before You Dig

    A federally mandated national number was created to help protect you from unintentionally hitting underground utility lines while working on digging projects. Whether you are a homeowner or professional, your underground utility lines will be marked for free when you call 811.
  • Transporting Cylinders

    Always make sure to store cylinders in a secure and upright position. Never leave your cylinder in a hot vehicle and take the cylinder out of your vehicle as soon as you reach your destination. Make sure you follow connection instructions and always check for leaks.
  • Manual Handling

    Manual handling is one of the leading causes of workplace injuries. These injuries can be prevented by distributing safety information and equipment, providing staff with advice and training on how to handle gas bottles, and rearranging methods of works to minimize manual handling.
