Check your propane heaters for safety
As colder temperatures begin to
settle in across the state, Texas Rail-
road Commission Chairman Michael
L. Williams, Commissioner Charles
R. Matthews and Commissioner
Tony Garza today encouraged
homeowners to have their propane
tanks and heating appliances thor-
oughly inspected by a licensed tech-
nician.
"The colder weather means win-
ter will soon be here," said Williams.
"Licensed propane technicians in
your area are ready to inspect your
home heating system to ensure it's
prepared for the months ahead."
"Millions of Texans rely on pro-
pane not only for home and water
lieating, but also for cooking," noted
Matthews. "Propane fuel systems
need regular service checks to ensure
iduximum reliability and satety.
"Many systems may not have been
u&ed for some time," Garza added.
"A thorough inspection of your
home's heating system is a good way
to know you'll be able to stay warm
safely throughout the winter."
According to Williams, Matthews
and Garza, other important safety tips
to remember include:
- If your home has a propane fur-
nace, water heater, range or other
conveniences, schedule a check of
the whole propane system - includ-
ing appliances.
- Your local propane service tech-
nician should check your tank, pip-
ing, regulators, gauges, connectors,
valves, vents, thermostats, pilots,
burners and appliance controls to
make sure they are all in good work-
ing condition.
- Homes with propane gas logs or
fireplace systems should be checked
each fall.
- Naturally odorless propane gas
has a rotten egg smell added to it to
help identify any leaks. If you ever
smell gas, leave the home immedi-
ately without using any electrical
switches or appliances. Close the ser-
vice valve under the protective dome
of your tank by turning it to the right
as far as it can go. Call your propane
supplier or local tire department from
a neighbor's phone.
To help consumers properly use
propane-fueled appliances, the Rail-
road Commission of Texas offers a
free safety brochure entitled Home
Safe Home. Copies are available in
both English and Spanish and can be
obtained by contacting the Railroad
Commission's Alternative Fuels Re-
search and Education Division toll-
free at 1-800-64-CLEAR [1-800-
642-5327].
In politics there is no such thing
as an enemy—only someone
who disagrees with you today
and who might be with you on
the next vote.
