2.1 Tips for the safe use of gas bottles
Gas bottles should always be in an
upright position, both while they are
in use and during transportation.
Never take a flame or a burning
object near a gas bottle during the
installation.
Trace leaks by means of a brush with
washing-up liquid and water, if
bubbles are formed you will know
there is a leak.
Always use a pressure regulator
between the bottle and the
appliance. Replace the pressure
regulator every 10 years.
