What about the installation of gas equipment?
Let's learn!
01
Proper installation of gas equipment facilities
When the user needs to install, modify, relocate or dismantle the indoor gas facilities, the gas supply unit shall be entrusted to carry out the operation, and remember not to privately connect the gas pipeline to the private connection, which is easy to cause potential safety hazards and accidents.
01
It is strictly forbidden to change gas facilities without permission
When users face the problem of gas pipeline relocation in the decoration, the first thing to pay attention to is that it also includes the destruction of gas meters and barbaric construction.
If the gas pipeline is not moved or dismantled in accordance with the specifications, the airtightness and natural ventilation conditions of the original equipment will be destroyed, and hidden dangers are easy to occur in the process of use.
At the same time, the behavior of privately connecting and changing gas facilities is carried out in the user's home, and the gas use place is controlled by the user, and it is difficult to scientifically supervise the personnel qualification and the quality of construction materials, which is very prone to potential safety hazards and endangers public safety.
Therefore, in order to ensure the safety of household gas, it is strictly forbidden to privately connect and change gas equipment and facilities.
02
Do not enclose gas appliances
In order to unify the decoration style and make the room beautiful and tidy, some families will choose to encapsulate and install gas meters, gas pipelines and even gas water heaters in the cabinet when designing and installing the overall cabinet, but these operations are easy to cause potential safety hazards.
Changing the layout of the original gas pipelines and gas meters at will, or burying or encapsulating gas facilities, is not only not conducive to daily gas inspection and maintenance, but also not easy to be found in case of gas leakage, which affects the treatment timeliness.
Gas pipelines, especially main valves and gas meters, must not be encapsulated. If you need to decorate, you can make a trap cabinet or leave a vent, and leave enough space for maintenance and security.
02
Use regular and safe gas appliances
When purchasing gas appliances, users should purchase them from formal channels and use products that meet national specifications to ensure the safety of household gas.
01
Use a cooktop with flame-out protection
In accordance with the relevant national standards, the user uses.
When the user is using the gas stove, if the flame is accidentally extinguished, the flame-out protection device will automatically cut off the gas source to avoid gas leakage, so as to ensure the safety of gas consumption. Therefore, users should choose a stove with flame-out protection device when purchasing a gas stove.
02
Choose a gas water heater that meets safety regulations
When purchasing gas water heaters, users should correctly choose gas water heaters that meet safety standards.
The characteristics of the in-line water heater are that the exhaust gas generated in the process of use is directly discharged into the air, so that it is easy to cause the accumulation of harmful gases and the lack of oxygen in the case of a closed room, which causes safety accidents, and the state has expressly prohibited the production, sale and use of in-line water heaters.
This kind of water heater only adds an anti-backwind exhaust hood and smoke exhaust system to the in-line structure, and the technology is relatively backward, so it is not recommended to use.
The strong exhaust water heater is a semi-closed water heater, the oxygen required for its combustion is taken from the room, and the exhaust gas is discharged to the outside through the flue, and the flue pipe must be extended out of the outdoors when the flue pipe is installed. The strong exhaust water heater should be installed in the ventilated place outside the bathroom, and it is forbidden to install it in the bathroom.
When the water heater is operating, the oxygen comes from the outside, and the exhaust gas is supplied by the fan and discharged to the outside, which neither consumes nor pollutes the indoor air.
3
Properly install the gas wall-hung boiler
The gas wall-hung boiler should be installed in an uninhabited room with gas, water supply, power supply, and convenient exhaust gas discharge. Usually the kitchen or an open balcony connected to the kitchen is the best choice for the installation location of the gas wall-hung boiler.
The gas wall-hung boiler should be equipped with a special flue to ensure that the exhaust gas generated by combustion can be safely discharged. At the same time, a gas alarm should be installed when using a gas wall-hung boiler to effectively ensure the safety of gas use.
4
Use gas intrinsically safe fittings
It is recommended that users use metal hoses, which are more resistant to high temperature, corrosion, and rat bites, and are safer and more durable overall. At the same time, the gas appliance hose should be purchased through formal channels and installed by professionals before it can be used.
The self-closing valve has the functions of overpressure, underpressure and overcurrent automatic cut-off protection. When the gas in the pipeline exceeds or falls below a certain pressure, or when the gas flow rate increases abnormally due to the hose falling off, it will be automatically cut off to protect the safety of users.
3
Rational design and layout of the house space
In recent years, "open kitchen" has become more and more popular among young people, but the blind pursuit of "open" is easy to cause potential safety hazards, and users should pursue beauty on the basis of ensuring safety.
Correct layout of gas pipelines
The "Technical Specifications for Urban Gas" stipulates that the user's gas pipelines and accessories shall be reasonably arranged in combination with the structure of the building, and shall be set up, and shall not be set up in bedrooms, guest rooms and other rooms where personnel live and rest.
Open kitchens are not advisable
According to the "Urban Gas Design Code", the gas stove should be installed in the kitchen with natural ventilation and natural lighting, and when using the suite (hall) of the bedroom or the corridor connected with the bedroom as the kitchen, the kitchen should be separated from the bedroom by a door.
There is no effective partition between the open kitchen and the bedroom, guest room, etc., and it is regarded as the same space. If there is a potential safety hazard in the open kitchen, because the kitchen does not have doors and windows to effectively isolate it from other rooms, it will also affect the living room, bedroom and other spaces.
In order to ensure the safety of the user's gas consumption, in the decoration process, a solid wall or door should be set up in the kitchen where the stove is set up to separate it from the bedroom and living room (hall) in accordance with the requirements of national regulations.
The following aspects should also be noted
In order to ensure the safety of household gas

Pay attention to personnel qualifications
If the pipeline gas user needs to install, modify, relocate or dismantle indoor gas facilities, it shall entrust the gas supply unit to carry out the operation, and use unqualified construction personnel or units, which will not only not have safety guarantees, but also cause gas safety hazards, and improper operation may cause gas accidents and losses.
Avoid water blockage and gas outages
Users must pay attention when decorating, do not connect the gas pipe with the water pipe in reverse. There are three interfaces on the gas water heater, namely the water inlet, the water outlet, and the air inlet, and the three interfaces have obvious signs, if they are reversed, the water will flow directly into the gas pipeline, resulting in the whole building or even the entire community gas outage.
Pay attention to pipeline protection
If there are residents in the community to carry out decoration operations, the property must remind users to pay attention to the protection of gas pipelines in the community and indoors in a timely manner.
