Brilio.net - If the LPG gas runs out, the stove cannot be used. After LPG gas is available, sometimes a new problem arises. When installing gas, the regulator can make a hissing sound.

This sound can be caused by too much pressure in the regulator , causing gas to leak. If left unchecked, this can cause a fire. Because they panic, some people immediately take the gas regulator to a repairman.

However, there is another way before rushing to take the regulator to a repairman. In addition to saving costs, this problem can be handled by yourself even without special skills.

This method was once demonstrated by YouTube user @Tusriaman. Reported by BrilioFood from YouTube @Tusriaman on Thursday (6/11), prepare one tool, namely a screwdriver.

First, open the top of the regulator. No need to pry, just pull the regulator cover.

Once done, pay attention and look for the regulator lever section. This lever is shaped like a plus (+) symbol in the middle of the regulator.

"Well, the way to do it is to just loosen it, turn it counterclockwise with a screwdriver. This is to eliminate the buzzing sound in the regulator," he explained further.

If you think it's enough, reinstall the regulator cap. Because the lever has been loosened, there is no more hissing sound coming from the gas.

"The result is like this, the sound becomes softer or even disappears," he said.

No need to worry, because this method is guaranteed safe. That way, you can immediately turn on the stove as usual.

"God willing, it's safe as long as the gas coming out is still stable, meaning the regulator membrane is in normal condition. If it doesn't work, usually the gas will spray out in large quantities when the stove is turned on, which is a sign that the regulator can be replaced," he said.
