Three injured women, aged 71, 40 and 18, were hospitalized at the Lviv Regional Clinical Hospital.<\/p>\n
In total, since the beginning of the year, 36 cases of carbon monoxide poisoning were recorded in the city, as a result of which 74 people were injured, 23 of them were children. Unfortunately, one person died. The causes of these poisonings were non-observance of the rules for using gas appliances in the home, violation of draft through sealed windows and electric hoods.<\/p>\n
Experts once again emphasize that the main requirement to avoid trouble is the flow of fresh air into the room where there are heating devices – through the window, door and ventilation channel, which must be constantly cleaned, and in which there must be an appropriate draft so that the exhaust gases are released into the atmosphere . Where devices are installed with a flue outlet of combustion products into the chimney – i.e. gas cats or columns, this chimney must also be clean. And in no case can there be electric fans in such rooms. If one of these rules is not followed, then carbon monoxide begins to form in the room and trouble occurs.<\/p>\n
REMEMBER!<\/p>\n
Gas is explosive, and the slightest violation of the rules can lead to tragedy – explosion, fire, poisoning and destruction. During all accidents related to the use of gas (explosion, fire, poisoning), you should call one of the city services: ambulance – 103, fire department – 101, gas department – 104, police – 102. Any of these services will notify the rest and they will arrive at the scene.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
