Gwangju Seobu Fire Station, Safety Guidelines for Using Wood-Burning Boilers
[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Jin-hyung] The Western Fire Station of Gwangju Metropolitan City announced on the 21st that it will provide guidelines on precautions when using wood-fired boilers to prevent fires during the winter season.
Wood-fired boilers require special caution during use because sparks can scatter from the fuel inlet or if the ashes left after burning are not properly managed, fires may occur elsewhere.
When using, the following precautions must be observed: ▲ Store flammable materials at least 2 meters away from the boiler ▲ Keep a fire extinguisher nearby ▲ Always close the fuel inlet after refueling ▲ Clean the chimney once every three months ▲ Do not add fuel all at once.
