Guidelines for safe usage of home gas lines Always make sure the gas valve is closed when you leave the house. Clean the gas stove regularly and ensure the pipe is not leaking. When you use a portable gas stove, do not use a wide pan. This can result in an increase in heat and pressure on the gas bottle, which could lead to an explosion. While cooking on a gas stove, do not leave the kitchen. After returning from a long vacation, ventilate the house before using the gas line.
