The weather is cold, the city gas consumption is large; Winter is also the season for gas accidents. Recently, the natural gas company issued a reminder to the society: to carry out regular inspection of the gas equipment in the home, more than 8 years of stove should be replaced in time, it is recommended to use metal bellows.

According to the analysis of natural gas company professionals, 95% of indoor gas accidents are caused by improper use of gas by users, resulting in gas leakage. The causes of gas leakage are: the hose is used after the expiration of time, aging cracking, falling off; Stove ignition failure, unburned gas directly discharged; Liquid overflow, pouring out the burning flame; Pipeline corrosion or gas meter, valve, interface damage; Artificial pull rope on indoor pipeline, hanging items and other external damage. In addition, in winter, users will close the doors and Windows, air flow is not smooth, gas leakage, not easy to distribute, more prone to gas accidents.

In order to ensure the safety of gas, natural gas company professionals remind the public: be sure to pay attention to the service life of the gas appliances at home, and replace them when they expire. According to the "household gas burning appliances safety management rules" provisions, from the day of sale calculation, cookware scrap life is 8 years. Some cookstoves that are more than eight years old appear to be in good condition on the surface, but their components have aged beyond their guaranteed service life. The old stove used for more than 8 years is easy to exceed the standard of carbon monoxide emission when burning. The carbon monoxide concentration emission may exceed the national regulations by more than 7 times.

Professionals told reporters that the rubber hose on the market is available for 18 months, and the life of the metal bellows is more than 8 years. If the gas appliance connection pipe in your home is made of rubber, it is recommended that the public can replace the stainless steel gas metal hose, which has the advantages of rat bite resistance, corrosion resistance, small pressure loss and good softness. At the same time, the gas metal hose must be equipped with a special valve, if the installation is not in place or the purchase of inferior metal hose, it is also easy to occur gas leakage.
