    Cooking with gas is preferred by many for its quick heat response and efficient cooking. However, it comes with its own set of challenges and safety concerns. Housewives, as primary users in many households, need to be aware of common mistakes to avoid when using gas stoves to ensure both culinary success and safety. Here are some crucial errors to steer clear of:

    Neglecting Maintenance: Gas stoves require regular maintenance. Failing to clean burners can lead to uneven flame, while ignoring potential gas leaks can be life-threatening. Housewives should regularly check for signs of wear and tear and replace parts as needed.

    Ignoring the Smell of Gas: Natural gas is odorless, but suppliers add a distinct smell to alert users of leaks. If you ever smell gas in your kitchen or home, it’s essential to turn off the stove, open windows and doors, and call a professional immediately.

    Using Oversized Pots: Using pots and pans that are too large for the burner can divert flames to the sides, leading to potential burns or melting of pot handles. Always match the pot size to the burner size.

    Leaving the Gas On: It’s easy to forget and leave the gas on without igniting the flame. This can lead to gas buildup, which can be harmful when inhaled and can lead to explosions. Always ensure the flame is ignited when the gas is turned on.

    Cooking While Distracted: Cooking requires attention. Leaving a gas stove unattended, even for a short while, can result in overflows, burning food, or even fires. Avoid multitasking or leaving the kitchen when the stove is on.

    Storing Items Near the Stove: Storing plastic items, paper, or cloth near the stove can pose a fire risk. Ensure the area around your gas stove is free from flammable materials.

    Using Damaged Tubes: The flexible tubes connecting the gas cylinder to the stove can wear out over time. Using damaged or old tubes can lead to gas leaks. Regularly inspect these tubes and replace them if you notice cracks or signs of aging.

    Ignoring the Flame Color: A blue flame indicates proper combustion. If the flame turns yellow or orange, it means the stove might not be burning efficiently, which can produce harmful gases. Clean the burners or call a technician if the flame color changes.

    Not Using Ventilation: Cooking with gas can produce harmful byproducts. Always ensure proper ventilation in the kitchen, either by using an exhaust fan or opening a window.

    Improper Storage of Gas Cylinders: Always store gas cylinders upright and away from other heat sources. This ensures that the pressure relief valve functions correctly in case of excessive pressure build-up.
