Brilio.net - Installing a gas cylinder is both easy and difficult. For example, when you get a gas cylinder with loose rubber, of course it will be troublesome because the gas will definitely hiss.
This hissing problem is actually related to the mismatch between the rubber seal and the regulator. As explained by Mang Sadi, a YouTuber who often shares tutorials about gas stoves, the main cause of gas leaks is not due to a damaged gas cylinder or regulator.
"There's actually nothing wrong with this gas cylinder, the regulator is still good. The main problem is the rubber seal which is thin and loose," said Mang Sadi as quoted from YouTube mang Sadi kompor, Thursday (6/2).

This rubber seal serves to maintain the tightness between the regulator mouth and the gas cylinder mouth. Thus, the gas can flow safely without leaking.
If the existing rubber seal is thin or loose, a hissing sound will be heard. This is dangerous because it can cause gas leaks.

Instead of replacing the rubber seal, Mang Sadi provides an easy trick to solve the problem. It turns out that it is enough to use insulation.
"Don't panic yet, just use isolation," he said.
This insulation is easy to find in home improvement stores or hardware stores. The price is also very affordable.

The process is quite simple, first take the tape. Then stick it on the loose rubber seal part of the regulator.
"Just three rounds of isolation are enough, don't do too many or it will be difficult during installation," continued Mang Sadi.

After the insulation is installed, immediately attach the regulator to the gas cylinder and check if there is still a hissing sound. This insulation will add thickness to the loose rubber seal, so that the gas can be held tightly and does not leak again.
After doing these steps, you can check for gas leaks by turning on the stove. If there is no hissing sound, it means the gas cylinder is safe to use.
"Tightly installed insulation will make the regulator stick more firmly to the mouth of the gas cylinder and the hissing sound will disappear," explained Mang Sadi.

With this simple trick, you can save time and money without having to panic. As long as the insulation is tightly installed, the gas stove is ready to use safely, and you can continue cooking without worrying about leaks again.
