BE SAFE WITH AEROSOLS
GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS: Aerosols have been used and stored safely in homes for over 60 years. There are very few aerosol accidents and those that do occur are usually caused by not following the instructions on the product label or deliberately misusing or abusing products. Aerosols are safe because of the care the industry takes in the design, production and testing of aerosols. They are tested at elevated temperatures and under extreme pressures so they can cope with unexpected conditions.
Many aerosols contain gases and liquids that may be flammable near a fire or heat. They also contain contents under pressure. This pressure increases with heat and may cause the can to burst.
To enjoy the many benefits of aerosols, always carefully read and follow the label instructions. In case of an emergency, always dial 000.
AEROSOLS ARE PRESSURISED SO PLEASE REMEMBER:
- Do not put aerosols on a bonfire, even when they are empty, because they will explode and may cause injury.
- Do not pierce aerosols, even when they are empty, because there is always some pressure, and possibly some of the product left. It may be flammable or cause injury if you pierce the can.
- Keep aerosols out of the sun and in a cold dry place away from heat. The pressure inside the can increases greatly in the heat and may cause it to burst.
- You should never keep aerosols inside cars because even in winter, temperatures can rise quickly.
AEROSOLS CONTAIN A CONCENTRATED PRODUCT SO:
- You only need to use them in short bursts unless the instructions say otherwise.
- If you are using them in a confined space, like a cupboard or under the sink, two or three second bursts should be enough. Make sure that you open windows or doors afterwards.
- Do not spray aerosols near your eyes as the contents may irritate them.
AEROSOL ABUSE:
Volatile Substance Abuse, often called “sniffing” or solvent abuse, is extremely dangerous and can kill instantly. Some young people do this to get intoxicated on the fumes of these products. The wide range of products which are abused are readily available in the homes and shops. They include:
- Butane lighter fuels
- Aerosols
- Adhesives.
