and can be described as a “rotten egg” smell.
The odorant can fade over time so leaking gas is
not always detectable by smell alone.
• Propane gas is heavier than air and leaking
propane will sink to the lowest level possible.
It can ignite by ignition sources including matches,
lighters, sparks or open flames of any kind many
feet away from the original leak.
Use only propane gas set up for vapor withdrawal.
• Store or use propane gas in compliance with local
ordinances and codes or with ANS/NFPA 58.
Turn off propane when not in use.
