In recent events, LPG has become very popular and beneficial for commercial use as well. LPG is also energy efficient. LPG is easy to store and obtain. It is also very economical. The GOI offered subsidized LPG gas cylinders whose taxable income is less than Rs.10 Lakh. You should apply for an LPG connection for a licensed LPG distributor.
LPG is combustible, so the workers will have to ensure measures and precautions in case of any LPG accident. There are certain measures that a hotel or commercial establishment could take for its safety:
- In case of an accident even if it is a small one, the workers should raise an alarm or a siren.
- If workers detect leaks, they should close down the valves and should stop using them.
- In case of any leakage, ensure to put a safety cap and carry the cylinder into safety space.
- In case of any fire, use a DCP fire extinguisher or you should call the fire station.
- The fire department should be notified early when you fail to control the leakage.
- Ensure that the cylinder must be in an upright position.
- Always check for leakage from the valve.
- Do not store unconnected cylinders and keep the valve off if you are not using it.
- Entry should be restricted to authorized people only. And don’t store any combustible materials in the room.
