Sometimes the vapors may follow air currents in the building to higher levels. Any

WHAT IS PROPANE? Propane (also called LPG—liquefied petroleum gas—or LP gas) is a widely used fuel. It is transported and stored as a very cold liquid, and can cause a “freeze burn” or frostbite if it contacts the skin. The liquid propane is turned into a gas inside a tank or a cylinder. In its natural form, propane is colorless and odorless. To make propane easier to detect in the event of a leak or

Several things can cause this including: Air, water, or rust in a propane tank or cylinder can reduce propane odor concentration. If the propane is leaking underground, its passage through soil may reduce the smell of propane. The propane odor may stick to the inside surfaces of gas piping and distribution systems and possibly
