Natural Gas Safety Rules: Beware of carbon monoxide produced by faulty appliances. A blue flame indicates that a gas appliance is operating properly; report and correct appliances displaying orange or discolored flame. Turning a burner’s flame so high that it comes up around the side of a pot is dangerous and wastes energy. Never use a gas oven as a clothes dryer. Keep toys and flammable objects away from a gas stove. Don't turn on an electrical switch if you smell natural gas (mercaptan). Children should never operate gas fireplaces. Call before you dig to locate buried gas lines.
Power Bandit Feud: The Power Bandit Feud tests students' knowledge of safety. It is an electronic game where point values are given for choosing the most likely answers to questions. There are three rounds to the game. Running point totals are kept.
