Why does my propane tank smell like rotten eggs?

If you smell a rotten egg odor coming from your propane tank or device, it indicates a propane gas leak.

This smell is a warning signal, and it's imperative that you follow the instructions in this video on what to do if you have a leaky propane tank.

Leaking propane gas can cause a hazardous situation, so it's crucial to learn how to quickly stop the leak and isolate where it's coming from.

Once you locate the leak, you can repair or replace the faulty equipment and operate your propane tank, grill, burner, or stove safely again.

Propane gas is naturally odorless, and the rotten egg smell comes from a chemical added to the propane gas, so you can detect a dangerous leak that could be combustible if not fixed.
