Page 5: If You Smell Gas
IF YOU SMELL GAS Liquid Propane gas has a man-made odourant added specifically for detection of gas leaks. If a leak occurs you should be able to smell the gas. Since Propane (LP) is heavier than air you should smell for the gas odour near to the floor. ANY GAS ODOUR requires immediate attention. - Page 6 CRITICAL POINTS TO REMEMBER! 1. Propane (LPG) gas has a distinctive odour. Learn to recognize the odour. 2. A periodic sniff test around the joints; i.e. hose, connections. etc, is a good safety practice under any conditions. FEATURES OF THE GSH15 HEATER Understanding the basic operation of the heater will reinforce the need to maintain it in top condition at all times whilst always observing the safety precautions.
