Gas explosion scene gruesome, the use of gas should pay attention to what details
At about 9:30 p.m. on 16 October 2016, a two-storey brick and wood structured private house located in Drowning Pu Village, Guanhaiwei Town, Cixi City, collapsed as a result of an explosion, which was initially analysed as a result of a household gas leak.
The family lived in an old couple, buried in the rubble after the accident. Woken up by the sound of the explosion, neighbours moved bricks, lifting cement blocks, trying to save people. The fire department arrived at the scene and rescued two elderly people from the rubble and masonry, but unfortunately, one of them was killed.
Household gas leakage must be vigilant
According to the combustible gas alarm editorial understanding, the main components of gas for carbon monoxide, hydrogen and methane and other flammable gases, once the leak will be mixed with oxygen in the air, its concentration reaches a certain range, as long as a small spark can trigger a huge explosion. Gas leakage and explosion have become one of the major causes of home kitchen fires. At about 2:10 a.m. on 26 September, an explosion occurred in a row of rented rooms located in Wuxing Village, Fengshan Street, Yuyao, resulting in four rented rooms being almost razed to the ground and a number of people being injured to varying degrees. Afterwards, after investigation, this explosion is also related to gas leakage.
Carbon monoxide gas alarm manufacturers to remind, gas leakage not only has the danger of explosion, gas in the carbon monoxide will also make people poisoned. Therefore, once you smell the smell of gas, you must be highly alert, but do not be overly nervous. First of all, hurry to check whether the gas cooker switch is closed, and then in turn to check whether the rubber pipe is off, and turn off the gas main valve. Then immediately open all doors and windows for ventilation to reduce the concentration of combustible gases in the gas. At this point, the one thing that should never be done is to light any open flames, as well as not switching on or off any electrical appliances, as even static electricity may trigger an explosion.
If you suddenly smell gas when you are sleeping at night, you should also never switch on the light when you get up to check, because if the concentration of combustible gas in the gas has reached the explosion limit, the act of switching on the light can easily trigger an explosion.
Household gas alarm manufacturers suggest that the conditions of the family can buy household gas alarm, once the leak will alarm, will effectively play a role in early warning, for emergency disposal and escape to win time.
