Always check your gas regulator

We were able to bought a new refill gas tank to our gas stove yesterday and I was surprise that the price of a new refill tank drops :) . That was a great news for us who use gas for cooking. After a few minutes the gas tank was delivered to us and the delivery boy tries to instal it in our gas stove but the gas leaks, I was to scared on what things might happen. He tries to install it again but the same thing happens and he suggest that we should change our regulator cause it was already deficted. 

My in-laws told him that we bought that regulator for a couple of months and how come it was damage to early. The delivery boy explain to us that some gas regulator usually damage to early depends on the manufacturer or maybe it came to the time that we need to change it. And besides who want to gamble or using a deficted regulator that may cause a huge damage to your property. Lots of fire related cases are cause by gas tank leak explosion due to a deficted gas regulator and we don't want those thing happen to us. So we decided to bought a new gas tank regulator and the delivery boy install it to our gas stove, after the installation there was no gas leak happens and the delivery boy was right our gas regulator has a defict. 

We should always be aware on our gas regulator, I highly suggest that you should check your gas regulator once a month or every time you bought a new gas tank, try to us a gas technician on the current status on your gas regulator whether you have to replace it or not. I remember during my rural days that we don't use gas tank for cooking instead we use woods for cooking so no gas leaks to worry. But using wood for cooking here in the urban area is time consuming and we all know time here in rural area runs fast, every minute is very important.
