How To Avoid Grease Fires and Flare-upsOf course, the best way to deal with grease fires and flare-ups is to avoid them in the first place. Here are the best ways to do it.
Will a fire extinguisher put out a propane fire?If you are unable to reach the knob, use the fire extinguisher to put out the fire and call 911 immediately; the fire may quickly move to the tank, which would be extremely hazardous. If the fire is in or at the tank, clear the area and call 911 immediately.
What happens if you light a propane tank on fire?If the pressure level inside the tank level exceeds that at which the safety relief valve can expel it, the propane tank will rupture. If flames or a source of ignition is present, the propane will ignite resulting in an explosion.
Should you disconnect propane after use?Regardless of the fuel source, for safety reasons, it's very important to turn off the supply of gas to the grill when it's not in use. If someone or something were to turn on one the control knobs on the grill, it would fill with gas, creating the potential for a very dangerous situation.
