Most parts of northern India are experiencing cold weather. It was still very cold in the morning and evening. Taking a cold shower is almost impossible during this season. In addition to bathing, hot water is also widely used for other purposes in winter. Most houses use geysers to heat water on cold days. Geysers are great for relieving colds, but if used incorrectly, they can cause big trouble.
Although the use of geysers is not complicated, many problems can occur if we are not careful when using them. It is not uncommon for such geysers to cause major accidents. If you are going to use a geyser, there are a few things you must keep in mind.
Don’t leave it for too long
It is often seen that people leave the geyser on for a long time even after the work is completed. If you do this, change your habit today. This habit of yours could lead to a major accident. It may also explode if left for a long time.
Please turn off the geyser when bathing
Most geysers have good water storage capacity. Most houses use geysers with a water storage capacity of 5, 10, 15 liters or more. Despite the hot water storage, many people use the geyser by turning it on while bathing. You should avoid making this mistake. If there is any fluctuation in the power, an electrocution accident may occur in this situation. Therefore, it is best to turn off the geyser when bathing.
Only purchase geysers from certified companies
You will find various types of geysers on the market, ranging from cheap to expensive. If you are planning to purchase a new geyser, you should only purchase it from a certified company. Many times, in an effort to cut costs, local companies compromise on safety features, which can lead to major accidents. The potential for damage to local geysers is also quite high.
Check before first use
If you plan to use your geyser again this winter, you should have it properly inspected before turning it on. Especially check that their electrical connections are correct. Pay attention to the temperature of the geyser. For better performance, keep the geyser between 45-50 degrees. In addition to this, if you plan to use your geyser for the first time this season, be sure to have it serviced.
