Korea Gas Safety Corporation and Gidurami Energy Join Forces to Complete Installation for 30 Households... Support Boiler Equipment Safety Inspections... Signed MOU Last Month to Promote Project
[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Guro-gu (Mayor Lee Seong) is installing carbon monoxide alarms in single-parent households to prevent poisoning accidents.
Guro-gu stated on the 7th, "Carbon monoxide, which is colorless and odorless, is difficult to detect when leaked, often leading to poisoning accidents," and added, "With the increase in boiler use approaching winter, we installed carbon monoxide alarms to prevent poisoning accidents in single-parent households."
The carbon monoxide alarm is a device installed near gas boilers that alerts with a warning sound if carbon monoxide leaks.
Guro-gu recently completed the installation of carbon monoxide alarms in 30 single-parent households and conducted safety inspections of boiler equipment.
This project was promoted in cooperation with the Korea Gas Safety Corporation Seoul Southern Branch and Kiturami Energy.
For the project, Guro-gu held a business agreement ceremony for supporting the installation of carbon monoxide alarms at the district office communication hall on the 4th of last month. Attendees included Mayor Lee Seong, Bang Hyojung, head of the Korea Gas Safety Corporation Seoul Southern Branch, and Lee Heon-gyu, executive director of Kiturami Energy.
According to the agreement, Guro-gu selected the target households for installation, the Korea Gas Safety Corporation conducted inspection of the carbon monoxide alarms and safety checks of boiler equipment, and Kiturami Energy handled the installation of alarms and supported installation costs.
