Sources of Combustible Gas
Disastrous explosions can occur from leaks of combustible gases,
such as natural gas (methane) and LPG gas (propane). These gases
are used to fuel a variety of common appliances found in the home.
Cooking stoves/ovens, hot-water heaters, clothes dryers, space
heaters, fireplace starters, and heating furnaces are the most common
gas-fuel burning appliances. Natural gas and propane can cause
devastating explosions from even the smallest leaks from any of
these appliances.
