Gas Shut Off Valve - Safety Signs by Caledonia Signs

Clearly indicate the location of the valve that controls the flow of gas in a building or industrial setting. This sign is critical for safety, as it helps workers, maintenance personnel, and emergency responders quickly identify where to stop the gas supply in case of leaks, fires, or other emergencies.

The primary purpose of this sign is to ensure rapid access to the shut-off valve, enabling the prompt isolation of gas to prevent accidents, explosions, or hazardous leaks. It supports safe operations and emergency response by making the valve easy to locate under stressful or urgent situations.

This sign is commonly found in residential buildings, commercial properties, industrial plants, and utility rooms where gas systems are installed. Proper labeling of shut-off valves is a key part of compliance with safety codes and regulations.

The sign should be placed directly above or beside the shut-off valve in a clearly visible position, free from obstructions. Maintaining the sign’s visibility and clarity is essential for effective emergency preparedness and overall safety.
