See gas tank with this sign
If you smell gas even though you haven't turned on the stove, it's likely that the gas line is leaking, the valve is broken or the gas line is incorrectly connected. In case of strong gas smell, snow around the tank, the room temperature increases, you need to quickly open the ventilation door, especially do not light a fire or turn on/off electrical equipment, it's best to disconnect the power source remotely, then quickly get out, call a repairman to check and handle it. Red Flame
The red flame of a gas stove can blacken the bottom of the pot, affecting your cooking. The cause is usually due to the gas running out, unclean cooking utensils, dirty nozzle, gas cylinder valve opening too little, gas cylinder about to run out or impurities. You should check and clean the entire stove and gas cylinder, this phenomenon will be improved.
Fire makes a popping sound
In case, you hear the gas stove's flame making a popping sound, it is very likely that your gas tank is leaking or the gas valve is not properly installed, or the fire vent is clogged. After adjusting the position of the fire vent and cleaning the fire vent, if this noise still exists, you should call a technician to check and repair it.
Abnormal fire
If your gas stove does not catch fire, the flame burns abnormally, and there is a smell of gas escaping, you need to immediately turn off the stove, unscrew the cylinder valve, and check whether the flame divider is misaligned or damaged, and clean the electric spark plug of the stove. If you cannot handle it yourself, it is safest to call a repairman to check.
To avoid gas accidents, pay attention to the following:
When choosing a gas cylinder, choose a genuine, reputable dealer to avoid counterfeit goods.
Choose a cylinder that is intact, not dented, has good paint, or is not peeling or rusting.
When replacing a gas cylinder, do not use or operate equipment that can generate sparks nearby, such as starting a motorbike or lighting a lighter.
Check the tightness of the gas cylinder and gas line with soapy water, both in the open and closed state.
The kitchen cabinet should not be sealed, but must be left open so that gas leaks can be smelled.
Limit gas leakage into the pipeline or pipes connecting to the outside. If there is a pipe in the kitchen connecting to the outside, when there is a gas leak in the house, the gas can spread to the street, and if it meets an electric spark, it can burn back inside.
When finished using, you should turn off the cylinder valve, not just turn off the stove, because there are cases where the homeowner is away all day, the mouse bites the gas line without knowing.
If your gas cylinder uses a screw valve, when opening, just turn it 1-2 turns (a little loose), that's enough, you don't need to open it all the way.
After 3-5 years of use, you should replace the gas line.
