Handling gas valves in homes is
really job for trained men and
scores of people are now being
given the necessary training. How
ever, there are some things that
you can and should do.
These are official suggestions
from the Office of Civilian De-
fense superseding previous in
structions to shut of gas stoves,
and furnaces and gas appliances
on both. The changed instructions
resulted from conferences with
nationally known gas experts and
were based on the difference be-
tween gas appliances in England
and the United States.
When you hear the air raid
warning, make no attempt to shut
of the main gas supply in your
home. Simply turn off any stove
burners that might be burning.
Don't blow out the pilot light.
If your house should be badly
damaged, the main gas valve
should be shut off. This valve is
located above the gas meter on
the left-hand or inlet pipe.
When open. the inlet cock, or
main gas valve, is parallel with
the inlet pipe. When closed, the
cock is at right angles to the pipe.
Some of these cocks can be
opened and closed by hand. Most
of them, however. requires me-
dium sized monkey or Stillson
wrench.
