Gas Explosion visuals

Evacuate and call the emergency services

Don’t use lighters

Open all doors & windows for ventilation, put off all flames, lamps, incense; put the safety cap on the cylinder

Drive for cover under a sturdy table or desk

Once the debris has finished falling, exit the area if possible – subsequent explosions may follow

If you are trapped under debris, try to keep calm

If you are trapped with others, talk to each other to maintain calmness

Tapping on pipes, walls or the floor may help rescuers plot your location, as could whistling

If the air is dusty, cover your mouth with clothing or fabric to filter breathing

If you are alone, talk to yourself or do mental agility exercises

Try to signal your location with torch

Floor plan diagrams should be strategically placed in each room

All family members/employees should know how to shut off gas supply
