Brilio.net - Not a few people are afraid to replace their own gas cylinder at home. The reason is that the newly installed gas cylinder is at risk of leaking. This is usually indicated by a hissing sound coming out. Not only that, sometimes the smell of gas is also strong. If left alone, there is a risk of starting a fire.
To get around this, a number of people immediately took various ways to deal with leaking gas cylinders . One way is to wrap a rubber band around the mouth of the gas cylinder.
After wrapping the rubber band, just install the regulator as usual. As a result, the hissing sound is no longer heard. But after investigating, this is considered ineffective and inefficient. This was explained by Instagram user @rahmat.priyanto88.
"Don't use this method, because the rubber will easily tear," he said, quoted by BrilioFood from Instagram @rahmat.priyanto88 on Saturday (1/6).

As a solution, this netizen actually took out a rubber seal from the mouth of the gas cylinder. After that, cut a simple tool, namely a rubber band. Make sure the size of the rubber band is the same as the opening of the gas cylinder.

If so, put the piece of rubber band into the hole. Press with your fingers until the rubber band pieces are installed perfectly.
After that, just put the rubber seal on top of the rubber band piece. Press again using your fingers until the rubber seal fits tightly.

Next process, install the regulator as usual. Press the center of the regulator then lock it until it "clicks". As a result, there is no more hissing sound coming out of the gas cylinder.

If no gas comes out, the stove can be turned on as usual. You no longer need to worry about the risk of fire when replacing a gas cylinder that runs out.
This video belonging to Instagram user @rahmat.priyanto88 immediately caught the attention of netizens. Since being uploaded, the video has been watched more than 3 thousand times. Not only that, several netizens also left responses in the comments column.
"I'm like that too. Give me rubber inside. Thank God it's safe," wrote the Instagram account @noor.sholihah.12.
"I just bought it and installed it straight away. I didn't see the hole in the lpg. When I took it off, the regulator wobbled because there was a rubber ring in it. Luckily someone had the courage to squeeze in the hole. So it didn't wobble anymore. Thank God I was able to install it safely," said the Instagram account @rissaalviyah .
