LPG or Liquified Petroleum Gas is the fuel all homes use when cooking nowadays. That is why I was very glad to have attended the PR Gaz Discovery Day last March 17 at the PR Gaz Plant and head office in Pasig.
I learned a lot about the PR Gaz Company and some LPG safety tips. I want to share with you some of the safety tips that I learned:
- Check your gas tank thoroughly before turning your stove on.
- Make sure that stove knob is turned off before opening the LPG tank valve.
- Always remember to close both LPG tank valve and stove knob after cooking.
In Case of Emergency:
- Remove all things that could posssibly start a fire like matches, cigarette etc.
- Do not turn on/ turn off switches at home. Leave them as it is, turning them off/on could start a spark.
- Leave doors and windows open for air to flow in and saturate the gas around.
- Turn off LPG tank valve to stop gas flow.
- Evacuate the house.
- Call 117 should a fire start.
