Jangsu-gun, Heatwave Preparedness 'Cooling Shelter' ... Inspection

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Go Dallyeong] Jangsu-gun announced on the 27th that it will conduct air conditioner inspections and repairs at seven heatwave shelters in the county's 7 eup and myeon areas by the 29th to prepare for the summer heatwave.

The county will have experts and staff visit 268 heatwave shelters to inspect management status, listen to the difficulties of the elderly, and check whether heatwave shelter guide signs are posted, whether cooling facilities (air conditioners) are operating normally, whether heatwave precautions are posted, and whether facilities are cleaned.

After inspecting the heatwave shelters, the county will immediately report the inspection results on the same day and take corrective actions and measures for any risks or deficiencies found.

Heatwave shelters are designated places that are easily accessible and equipped with air conditioners, providing a space where vulnerable elderly living alone can rest briefly during heatwaves.

Jang Young-su, the county governor, said, “We will focus all administrative efforts during the summer heatwave countermeasure period to ensure residents can safely get through the summer heat, which has arrived earlier than usual.”
