FUEL GAS ODOR
LP gas and natural gas have man-made odorants added
specifically for detection of fuel gas leaks.
If a gas leak occurs you should be able to smell the fuel
gas. Since Propane (LP) is heavier than air you should smell
for the gas odor low to the floor. ANY GAS ODOR IS YOUR
SIGNAL TO GO INTO IMMEDIATE ACTION!
­ •­Do­not­take­any­action­that­could­ignite­the­fuel­gas.­Do­not­
operate any electrical switches. Do not pull any power supply
or­extension­cords.­Do­not­light­matches­or­any­other­source­
of flame. Do not use your telephone.

­ •­Smoking­can­decrease­your­ability­to­smell.­Being­around­an­
odor­for­a­period­of­time­can­affect­your­sensitivity­to­that­
particular odor. Odors present in animal confinement buildings
can mask fuel gas odor.
•­The odorant in propane (LP) gas and natural gas is
colorless and the intensity of its odor can fade under
some circumstances.
­ •­If­there­is­an­underground­leak,­the­movement­of­gas­through­
the soil can filter the odorant.
­ •­Propane­(LP)­gas­odor­may­differ­in­intensity­at­different­levels.­

odor­at­lower­levels.
• Always be sensitive to the slightest gas odor. If you
continue to detect any gas odor, no matter how small, treat
it as a serious leak. Immediately go into action as discussed
previously.
ATTENTION - CRITICAL POINTS TO
REMEMBER!
­ •­Propane­(LP)­gas­has­a­distinctive­odor.­Learn­to­recognize­
these­odors.­(Reference­Fuel­Gas­Odor­and­Odor­Fading­
sections­to­the­left­and­above).
­ •­Even­if­you­are­not­property­trained­in­the­service­and­repair­
of­the­heater,­ALWAYS­be­consciously­aware­of­the­odors­of­
