Propane has an added odorant that smells like a skunk’s spray, rotten eggs, or a dead animal. This distinctively unpleasant smell is a safety feature of your propane system. If you smell a leak, have everyone get outside and move away from the house. Put out all smoking materials and other open flames. Do not operate lights, appliances, telephones, or cell phones—as they could create a spark, or ignition source.
You can get small propane cylinders filled by qualified professionals at thousands of locations nationwide. When transporting your cylinder, always store it in an upright position so it cannot fall, shift, or roll. Don’t leave your cylinder in a hot vehicle for an extended amount of time; take the cylinder out of your vehicle when you arrive.
Regular inspection of your propane system by qualified professional will give you peace of mind. Talk to your propane retailer about what kind of inspection is right for you.
