• Learn what propane smells like. Propane retailers have scratch-and-sniff pamphlets to help family recognize its distinctive odor.
• Know where gas lines are located, so you won't damage them when digging or working in yard.
• Change or clean furnace filters regularly as recommended by the manufacturer.
• Don't store cleaning fluids, oil-soaked rags, gasoline, or other flammable liquids near a gas-appliance where vapors could be ignited by the pilot light.
