Gas Safety Tips for Your Camping Trip

There’s something about spring and the countdown to summer that makes you want to explore the great outdoors. Camping trips are at their peak at this time of the year, with many people choosing camping because of the numerous health benefits associated with it.

Camping Gaz is an essential product to take on your camping trip, providing gas for everything from lanterns to stoves. When handling gas, however, there are safety tips which you must not ignore. At Adams Gas, we have listed the most important gas safety tips to keep in mind on your next camping trip.

Avoid Enclosed Spaces

It is imperative not to use your camping stove or BBQ inside tents, caravans or anywhere indoors – especially when it is near to where individuals rest. Fire’s are easily spread, even under a careful and watchful eye, and this increases when in enclosed and confined spaces.

To work safely, BBQs need more ventilation than your tent provides, and if used outside, this reduces the risk of a fire rapidly spreading.

Cook Away from Your Tent Area

This may seem an obvious tip to follow, but it is easy to misinterpret the distance you have allowed yourself to use your gas cannister safely for the use of cooking. Make sure you have allowed yourself enough distance to use it in a safe manner.

Keep Away from Children

Camping Gaz and other gas products can cause harm to those who are unaware of how to use them correctly and safely. It is important to keep these products away from infants and children to prevent any harm.

Keep the product safely stored away when you are not using it. Whilst in use, ensure children are kept at a safe distance away.

Keep Away from Fires

Gas and fires are never a good mix due to the reaction they cause. This can result in injury to those who are within a close distance. When using your gas cannister for cooking or lanterns, ensure you are well away from any open fires.

So, whether you are camping with loved ones or friends, or you work within the camping business, ensure that you follow these tips to enjoy a safe experience when camping.
