4 Essential Safety Tips for Gas Appliance Users

Using gas appliances is convenient and cost-effective, but safety should always be your top priority. At Galeforce Gas, we’re SAQCC certified to install and inspect gas systems safely across Newcastle and Northern Natal.

Here are five essential safety tips every gas appliance user should know to protect their home and family.


1. Regular Inspections are a Must

Schedule professional safety inspections every year. Certified installers check for leaks, faulty valves, and proper ventilation — key to preventing accidents.


2. Ventilation is Vital

Make sure your gas appliances are well ventilated. Poor ventilation increases the risk of CO build-up and reduces appliance efficiency.


3. Know How to Shut Off the Gas

In case of smell of gas or emergency, everyone in the household should know how to shut off the gas supply quickly and safely.


4. Don’t Attempt DIY Repairs

Gas work requires specialized knowledge and certification. Always call a professional like Galeforce Gas for repairs and installations to ensure compliance and safety.
