Intensive and prolonged working of the gas hob that needs to intensify
ventilation, e.g. opening windows or increasing the power of the air intake

Liquefied petroleum gases are heavier than air, so settle it downward. Rooms
in which LPG tanks are installed must be fitted with ventilation to the outside
to avoid of gas leakage.
Therefore, LPG tanks which are empty or partially full, must not be installed or
stored in rooms or spaces below ground level (cellars etc.). It is a good idea to
keep only the tank which is working currently in the room, and make sure that it is
not closed to heating source (ovens, fireplaces, stoves, etc.).
