Do’s and Don’ts

What You Should Do What You Should not Do
Learn all you can about natural gas. The more you know...the more you will be safe. Ever let small children play with or near natural gas appliances or pipes, even the knobs on the oven or cooktop.
Use your nose. If you ever detect even a small amount of the odour of natural gas in the air, don’t stay—get away. Then, contact SGL emergency number. Do not use your stove or oven for anything other than cooking (for instance, to heat your home, under any circumstances.
Look for the blue flame. If pilot lights and burners have a steady, blue flame, they are operating correctly. (Decorative gas fire logs are the only exception. Their flame is usually yellow.) Move or install a gas appliance or change the connector in any way without professional assistance.
Have all gas appliances, furnaces, vents, flues, chimneys and gas lines in your home or business inspected every year or two by qualified industry professionals. Use a space heater UNTIL you are sure it has been vented properly. If using a vent-free heater, make sure the automatic cut-off switch is operational.
Keep the areas around all appliances and equipment clean and unblocked to allow proper air flow. Install a gas appliance yourself, unless you are a qualified personal. Instead, you should always seek professional assistance.
Follow manufacturer instructions for the care and use of gas appliances and equipment. Never store household chemicals or combustible materials near gas appliances.
Make sure there is at least one multipurpose fire extinguisher in your home or place of business.
