Rules for the use of gas cylinders in everyday life!

Natural gases are potential sources of danger to humans. The most dangerous are methane (urban trunk gas) and liquefied gas (in cylinders) used in everyday life.
In this regard, we remind you of the basic rules of gas safety:
- to refuel cylinders only at specialized points designed for filling household cylinders equipped with a weighing system, control scales that ensure regulatory accuracy of weighing, a vessel (cylinder) for draining gas from overflowing cylinders;
- you can not bring the balloon from cold to heat, put it near heat sources - there is a sharp expansion, as a result - an explosion;
- make sure before replacing the cylinder that the taps of the new and used cylinders are closed, after replacing, check the tightness of the connections (by applying a soap solution);
- use a special (not random) flexible rubber hose with a marking, no more than a meter long, fixed with safety clips to connect the cylinder to the gas stove, do not allow it to stretch or pinch;
- follow the sequence of switching on gas appliances: first light a match, and then open the gas supply;
- do not use an untested balloon;
- to avoid gas leakage, make sure that boiling liquids do not flood the fire during cooking, clean the burners regularly.
