Home and RV Gas Safety Tips

• Test your detectors & alarms regularly.
• If your detector has batteries, replace them annually.
• Keep gas appliances well maintained.
• Do not enter a home when an alarm is sounding. CALL 911.
• Evacuate immediately if a combustible gas alarm sounds.
• Do NOT close the door or turn off lights, simply leave the building.
CALL 911 after you evacuate.


Function of Gas Detectors

A gas detector measures the amount of gas and the time of exposure in a relative space. The detector measure levels of gas over time and are designed to sound an 85 decible alarm before an average, healthy adult would experience symptoms. It may be a higher amount of gas over a short period of time or a lower amount for an extended time frame. Either way, when the alarm senses a certain saturation level of CO, NG, or LP, it will sound an alarm tone. It is very possible that you may not be experiencing symptoms when you hear the alarm. Do not ignore your alarm if it goes off. Take appropriate action to stay safe.

The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) recommends installing at least one carbon monoxide alarm with an audible warning signal near the sleeping area. The International Association of Fire Chiefs (IAFC) also recommends UL Listed carbon monoxide alarms--on every level of the home and in areas near appliances that are potential sources of CO.

Carbon Monxide (CO) Safety Information

Carbon monoxide (CO) is the leading cause of accidental poisoning deaths in America, yet many people don't know they are suffering from CO poisoning until it's too late. Since the symptoms of CO poisoning are like the flu, you might not even know you're in danger at first. That's why a carbon monoxide alarm is an excellent way to protect your family. It can detect CO you can't see, or taste in the air. Victims exposed to high levels of CO can become seriously ill or die in 15 minutes. Medical experts believe that some individuals--like pregnant women, unborn babies, infants, children, the elderly, and people with heart or lung problems--are more vulnerable to poisoning.

Natural Gas (NG) Safety Information

Natural gas by nature is highly combustible/flammable, hence its variety of applications in cooking, heating, etc. Exposure to low levels of natural gas is not harmful to your health. However, if a gas leak from a home, RV, or industrial appliance is severe, the amount of oxygen available for breathing could be dramatically reduced, which can lead to asphyxia. Symptoms of asphyxia include dizziness, fatigue, nausea, headache, and irregular breathing. Exposure to extremely high levels of natural gas can cause loss of consciousness or even death.

Propane Gas (LP) Safety Information

While propane is used as a gas for fueling appliances, it is transported and stored as a liquid under high pressure in specially designed containers referred to either as tanks or cylinders. When propane changes into gas vapor, it expands in volume by about 270 times, meaning that propane is very economical to store and transport as a liquid rather than as a gas vapor. However, this characteristic also means that even a small leak of liquid propane can result in a much larger quantity of propane vapor, which can be especially dangerous in a confined space. It can cause property damage, injuries, or even death.
