Gas cylinder at home..A very important advice to know.

Dear friends,

You may want to let your wife, friends or maids know as well when theyreceive the gas cylinder from the vendor next time.This is really very good information for all of us to remember.Please check your household gas tank cylinder as soon as possible.

Knowing the uncouth characters we have to deal with, you should never besurprised that they will continue to use old tanks, though they will alsotell youthat they get their supplies in the tanks now sold to us. Insist on newertanks!

*Do you know that LPG gas cylinders have expiry dates?

*Expired LPG cylinders are not safe for useand may cause accidents.In this regard,please be cautious at the time ofaccepting any LPG cylinderfrom your vendor.

Here is how we can check onthe expiry of LPG cylinders:

On one of three side stems of the cylinder,the expiry date is coded alpha numericallyas follows:A or B or C or Dand some two digit number following this,e.g. D06.

The alphabets stand for quarters -

1. A for March (first quarter),

2. B for June (second quarter),

3. C for September (third quarter), &

4. D for December (fourth quarter).

*The digits stand for the year till it is valid.Hence D06 would mean December quarter of 2006.

Please return back the cylinder that you get with an expired date.They are prone to leaks and other hazards

*.This second example of D13 allows the cylinder to be in use until December2013.

Kindly share this info everyone,and create awarenessamongst our friends and families .
