Bunnings store recalls gas cylinders being sold
A recent safety concern has led to the recall of gas cylinders sold by Bunnings in Western Australia. The specific cylinders in question are the 8.5kg LPG exchange gas cylinders with Swap N Go branding, which were available at Bunnings Geraldton on September 11 of this year. According to Product Safety, these cylinders may have been filled with an excessive amount of gas, which could potentially cause gas to be released from the safety valve.

As a result, there is a risk of serious injuries or property damage if the released gas encounters an ignition source or if the cylinder is connected to an appliance and dispenses liquid LPG instead of gas. In addition, there is also a risk of cold burns if someone comes into contact with the gas as it is released from the valve. To prevent any potential harm, it is important for individuals to stop using the affected cylinder immediately and disconnect it from any appliances.

To address this issue, customers are advised to contact Elgas, the company responsible for the recall. They can be reached at 0438 698 072 or via email at [email protected]. Elgas will arrange for the collection of the recalled cylinder and provide a replacement at no cost to the customer. In the meantime, it is recommended to refrain from using the affected cylinder and to keep it in a safe, well-ventilated area.
