Gas leaks can be dangerous and require immediate action to ensure safety. Here are some of the steps to follow if you smell gas or suspect a gas leak:
- Evacuate the area: If you smell gas or suspect a leak, the first priority is to evacuate the premises. Ensure that everyone leaves the area quickly and safely.
- Open doors and windows: Once outside, open doors and windows to ventilate the area. This helps to disperse the gas and reduce the risk of ignition.
- Switch off fuel-burning appliances: If it is safe to do so, turn off any fuel-burning appliances, such as stoves or boilers. This helps to prevent further gas buildup.
- Do not use electrical switches: Avoid using any electrical switches or appliances, as they could create a spark that could ignite the gas.
