WHAT DOES PROPANE SMELL LIKE?

Propane smells like rotten eggs, a skunk’s spray, or a dead animal. Propane manufacturers add this smell to help alert customers to propane leaks.

IF YOU SMELL GAS

1. Immediately put out all smoking materials and other open flames.
2. If you are able to, safely turn off the cylinder valve. To close the valve, turn it to the right (clockwise).
3. Immediately leave the area and call 911 or your local fire department.
4. Before you restart the appliance, have a qualified service technician inspect your cylinder and appliance.

TRANSPORTING SMALL CYLINDERS

• ALWAYS transport and store a cylinder in a secure and upright position so it will not fall, shift, or roll.
• ALWAYS close the cylinder valve and, if required, seal with a plug, even if  the cylinder is empty. Ask your propane retailer if a plug is required.
• NEVER keep a filled cylinder inside a hot vehicle or transport it inside a closed trunk.
• ALWAYS place the cylinder in a well ventilated area of the vehicle.
• ALWAYS proceed directly to your destination and immediately remove the cylinder from your vehicle.
• The law places limits on the number of cylinders and the amount of propane that can be transported in closed-bodied vehicles such as passenger cars and vans. Ask your propane retailer for more information on state and local codes that apply to you.

The above agencies respond to our facility and to the residences of our customers in the event of a propane emergency, so we felt compelled to educate the responders on the operation of safety devices used in the propane industry. This included mechanical safety devices on our tanks, our trucks and in our facility. Additionally, we discussed our safety plan for the facility and gave the responders an idea of what they could expect from our safety-trained employees in the event of an emergency. This training gave these emergency responders the opportunity to ask questions, get immediate answers, and also allowed them to get an up-close look at what a safe, controlled environment should entail.

We hope the safety training will help if there are future occurances and are proud to have had this opportunity to get involved with effective propane emergency response. We are honored to work with so many great Kansas Fire Departments. Their protection in the event of a propane emergency brings a great sense of security to all.

When he finally arrived, the propane company’s serviceman was not prepared to fill the tank, but only to check it for leaks. The company had misinformed him and he had only come with equipment to check for leaks and not to fill the empty tank. He said that he couldn’t check for leaks provided the tank had no propane in it to test for them. Nor was he able to fill the tank without the proper equipment for it. He left; leaving an empty, leaking tank and a frustrated Tina.

After three weeks of waiting to get her propane tank set up for summer, she decided to call Wayman Oil. When General Manager, Mike Tanner, said he’d be there the next day, Tina knew it was time to switch over to Wayman for more satisfactory service.

Wayman workers arrived the next day to set up a new tank for her family, trenching a new line to the house and helping get everything set up on a line the other company had installed to their pool heater. Wayman also worked with the Sedgwick County Department of Code Enforcement to get a satisfactory inspection.

Not only did Mike and Wayman Oil ensure the safety of her family’s propane tank and lines, Tina commented that Mike and the Wayman staff are “very professional, courteous and are fast and efficient workers.” She added that she really likes Mike’s leadership at Wayman saying, “He’s very innovative and I can see how he is moving the company forward.”

What began as a frustrated Tina needing quick service and receiving it from Wayman rather than her provider at the time, has ended in her great appreciation for Wayman’s customer service. She appreciates the prompt, courteous staff and a call back from Wayman within 24 hours, adding that she enjoys the personal service. Tina’s husband and Mike even found that they are both “Blue Brothers,” she said. Both have previously worked in law enforcement and found they already know each other: a great start to a new customer relationship!

Tina ended by saying that she was happy to tell of her Wayman experience, “Anything for Mike!” she exclaimed. “I’d rather be with local, more personal service,” where people know each other by name and not just what’s listed on stops to make for the day like other companies (if the stops ever get made).

Mrs. Sickman called Wayman Oil one Saturday because her tank needed filling. Mike Tanner quickly came out and found that their line was broken and leaking. He shut everything off, went back to the office and returned to install a temporary tank for the Sickmans to have heat over the weekend. “This is a big deal,” said Diane, “if he hadn’t have come, it wouldn’t have been safe. Gas leaks are dangerous.” It was also a big deal to her because at the time, Mike and his family were moving, yet he still arrived quickly after hours to ensure the family had heat. Mr. Tanner gave them a bid and returned Monday to trench in a new line, ensuring their system was safe again.

Mrs. Sickman said of her experience, “They were very helpful and took care of business. They made sure everything was working. Mike was even moving, but still came out. He’s just a really nice guy.” The next comment she had is one that is consistently present in all of Wayman Oil’s testimonials. “Wayman is always very quick to respond,” Diane said, “it’s usually on the same day within four hours.”

In the past nearly two decades, Diane has seen many flyers and received calls from other propane providers urging her to switch to their services. But she sees no reason to ever switch from Wayman. “We’ve always been very happy” she said of Wayman’s customer service. “We’ve always been taken care of with them and will continue to be, and that’s that!” she exclaimed. There’s no doubt that Wayman will continue to provide the same quick, knowledgeable and friendly service at the Sickman residence. We are proud and honored here at Wayman to have such loyal customers and look forward to 20 more years of service with them.
