What to do if the cylinder is leaking?
First step
If you have come to know that the gas cylinder is leaking, then you should immediately close its regulator. By smelling the gas, you can find out whether the gas is leaking or not. If you smell the gas, immediately turn off the regulator.
Step 2
Now that you have found out that the gas is leaking and you have also turned off the regulator, during this time, make sure that you open the windows and doors of the house and do not light a matchstick even by mistake. Also, do not turn on the light switch. If you do this, an accident can happen because the leaked gas can catch fire.
Step 3
If you feel that the regulator is leaking even after it is turned off, then remove the regulator and put the cap tied on the cylinder at the place where the regulator is. Also, keep children away and you can also keep the cylinder in an open place.
Step 4
Do not make the mistake of taking gas leaking from the cylinder lightly. Therefore, you should immediately call your gas agency or the delivery person. Tell them that the gas cylinder is leaking. Here it is the complete responsibility of the gas agency to replace your gas cylinder and give you a leakage-free cylinder.
