1. The Golden Rule of Ventilation (Gas Geysers)
Gas geysers “Carbon Monoxide” peda karte hain jo ke ek rang-heen aur boo-heen (odorless) zeherili gas hai.
- Never Indoors: Kabhi bhi gas geyser ya gas instant geyser ko band bathroom ke andar install na karain.
- Fresh Air: Inhein hamesha khuli jagah ya balcony mein lagayein jahan hawa ka rukh saaf ho. Agar kitchen mein lagana ho, to exhaust fan ka hona lazmi hai.
2. Check the Pressure Relief Valve (PRV)
Ye valve geyser ka sab se bara “Hero” hai. Agar pani had se zyada garam ho jaye aur tank mein pressure barh jaye, to ye valve pressure ko release kar deta hai.
- Test Monthly: Is ke lever ko halka sa utha kar dekhein ke thora pani bahar aata hai ya nahi. Agar ye phasa hua hai (stuck), to isay fori badlein taake tank phatne (explosion) ka khatra na rahe.
3. Setting the Safe Temperature
Boht zyada garam pani na sirf bill barhata hai balkay “Scalding” (jalne) ka baais bhi ban sakta hai, khas tor par bachon aur buzurgon ke liye.
- Recommended Level: Apne geyser ka thermostat 45°C se 50°C par set karain.
- The Test: Nalka kholne par hamesha pehle thanda pani kholain aur phir garam pani shamil karain.
4. Electrical Safety (Electric Geysers)
Electric water heaters mein bijli ka current aane ka khatra hamesha rehta hai agar wiring purani ho.
- Proper Earthing: Ensure karain ke aap ke ghar ki electrical wiring mein “Earth” (Grounding) ka system mojood ho.
- Circuit Breaker: Geyser ke liye hamesha ek alag MCB (Miniature Circuit Breaker) lagwayain jo load barhne par khud-ba-khud trip ho jaye.
5. Annual Professional Inspection
Har winter season ke shuru hone se pehle kisi professional technician se geyser ka “Full Checkup” karwayain.
- Gas Leakage: Technician ko kahain ke wo “Soap Water Test” ke zariye tamam gas joints check kare.
- Anode Rod: Tank ke andar ki magnesium rod ko check karwayain. Agar wo khatam ho gayi hai, to tank andar se zang (rust) pakar sakta hai aur leak ho sakta hai.
