Can carbon monoxide poisoning be detected?

summary

As soon as winter comes, more and more people use gas-fired water heaters to take a bath. In some places, coal and charcoal are also used to heat the house. While enjoying the warmth, we must not ignore the safety. Carbon monoxide poisoning is a big problem. Let's share my experience with you.

Can carbon monoxide poisoning be detected?

Check the gas regularly. Although now many families start to use induction cooker cooking, but the use of gas tank is still in the majority. Therefore, the family using gas must develop the habit of regularly checking whether the pipeline and valve have leakage, and tighten the gas stove and valve after cooking, so as to avoid forgetting. The gas tank must be sent for maintenance when it reaches its age to prevent defective cylinders from being stored at home.

Pay attention to ventilation. When using gas, be sure to open the windows and keep good ventilation. If you take a bath with an old-fashioned gas water heater, the doors and windows should not be closed. Just leave a small gap, as long as it doesn't blow directly to the body to cause a cold.

Try not to burn coal indoors. This includes burning coal stove for heating, burning charcoal hot pot, barbecue and eating. It must be burned and kept in a well ventilated place, instead of closing the door because of the fear of cold wind from outside. When heating, pay attention to keep a certain distance between people and the brazier, so as to keep warm without directly inhaling a large amount of carbon monoxide.

matters needing attention

Don't leave the old man to warm himself. Old people's old age, memory will inevitably be some can't keep up, whether there is charcoal burning are not necessarily remember. In addition, the senses have been somewhat dull, even if the intake of a lot of carbon monoxide may not be able to be very keen to detect. Therefore, do not leave the elderly alone in such dangerous places.
