With the potential storm approaching this weekend, Mid-Atlantic Propane Exchange wants to ensure you’re prepared and safe. Here are some important propane safety tips to keep in mind:
- Check Your Tank Levels:
Make sure your propane tank is adequately filled to avoid running out during the storm. - Secure Your Propane Tanks:
Ensure your tanks are properly secured and protected from high winds, flooding, or debris. - Know How to Turn Off Your Propane Supply:
In case of severe damage to your propane system, know how to turn off the main gas supply valve. - Keep Emergency Contacts Handy:
Have the contact information for your propane supplier and local emergency services ready in case you need assistance. - Follow Post-Storm Safety Protocols:
After the storm, inspect your propane system for any damage. If you smell gas or suspect a leak, leave the area immediately and call for professional help.
To help our drivers access your propane cages safely and efficiently, we ask you to take a few simple steps:
- Clear Snow Around Cages
Ensure that snow is removed from a 10-foot radius around your propane cages. This allows our drivers enough space to maneuver and perform their tasks without obstruction. - Maintain a 3-Foot Access Path
Provide a cleared path at least 3 feet wide leading to the cages. This will enable our team to safely reach the storage area with ease, minimizing potential delays. - Apply Salt and Sand
Icy conditions can make accessing propane cages dangerous for everyone involved. Please use salt and sand around the delivery area to reduce slick spots and provide safe footing for our drivers.
These small but crucial measures not only ensure timely deliveries but also help prevent accidents during service. With your cooperation, we can maintain a safe working environment and continue meeting your commercial propane needs effectively.
Your safety is our priority. If you have any questions or need support with your propane systems, don’t hesitate to contact us.
