The hidden dangers of ordinary rubber hoses

According to statistics, more than 80% of indoor gas accidents are caused by problems with pipe materials, gas stoves, gas valves, hoses used to connect stoves, or private modifications. Among them, the hose problem is particularly serious, mainly in the following situations:

1. The hose falls off: Because the hose is not fastened when installing the hose, or after a long time of use, the bayonet is corroded or loosened, which is easy to cause the hose to fall off and run out of gas, so pay attention to check whether the connections at both ends of the hose are tight. Prevent the hose from falling off.

2. Aging of the hose: The hose has been used for too long and is not replaced in time, which is prone to aging and cracking problems, which will lead to air leakage of the hose. Under normal circumstances, the hose needs to be replaced after two years of use.

3. The hose goes through the wall: Some users move the gas cooker to the balcony, the construction is not standardized, and the hose passes through the wall. This will not only make the hose in the wall easily damaged, broken and escape due to friction, but also It is not convenient to check it on a daily basis, which brings great security risks to the home. If the gas facilities in your home need to be changed, you must find a professional to implement them.

Fourth, the hose is too long: the hose is too long and easy to mop the floor. Once it is punctured by a foot pedal or a cutting tool, and it is deformed and ruptured by squeezing, it is easy to cause a gas leakage accident. Gas hoses generally cannot exceed two meters.

5. Use non-specialized hoses: During the safety inspection in the gas department, technicians found that some users did not use special gas hoses in their homes, but replaced them with other materials. The gas department hereby reminds that special gas hoses must be used instead of other hoses, and it is strictly forbidden to have joints in the middle of the hoses.Popcorned-EPDM-Hose
