Domestic gas water heaters are very convenient because they can be burned and used, so the popularity rate is very high and is widely welcomed by consumers. However, when purchasing and using gas water heaters, consumers also encountered some problems, such as leaking gas. What should be paid attention to when purchasing and installing and using? In this issue, the reporter interviewed professionals on these issues, one by one. Make a detailed answer.

Installation: first set the model and then lay the pipeline

The industry mainly wants to install gas water heaters, and it needs to be fully prepared during the hydropower transformation stage of the renovation project. As far as ordinary households are concerned, there are three pipelines related to gas water heaters, namely, cold water inlet pipes, hot water outlet pipes, and gas inlet pipes. It should be noted that different types of water heaters have different requirements for the position of the three pipelines, so the owner must first determine the model of the gas water heater, and then let the construction team reserve the pipeline. It should also be noted that the use of gas water heaters also requires the use of power, so the owner must reserve a socket at the location where the water heater is installed, and it is best to use a socket with a switch.

Under normal circumstances, the construction team will first install pipelines, then install gas water heaters, and the hot and cold water pipes of the water heaters are generally connected from the top, the position is in the middle of the installation position of the water heater, and the nails are fixed on the wall when fixing the water heater, so the owner should叮嘱 Installers, avoid the nailing and socket when laying the pipeline, so as not to affect the installation of the water heater.

Most of the gas water heaters currently on the market use a strong row type, that is, the gas when the equipment is working is discharged to the outside, and the exhaust pipe is made of metal because of the certain heat of the discharged gas. This requires the construction personnel to avoid the exhaust pipe of the range hood when deploying the exhaust pipe, because the latter is a plastic pipe, which may cause local aging and damage if exposed to hot air for a long time.

Use: to achieve the four most important defense

Leakage prevention: The power supply of the gas water heater must have a reliable ground wire and use independent lines. It is strictly forbidden to connect the original power cord of the equipment. The use of PPR insulated pipeline for waterway installation can effectively reduce the risk of electric shock. For a balanced gas water heater installed in a bathroom, the socket must be installed where the shower cannot be sprayed and a splash-proof socket is used. For outdoor gas water heaters installed outdoors, the power outlets should be placed indoors to prevent moisture and water ingress.

Water leakage prevention: The location of the gas water heater must have sufficient displacement and unobstructed floor drain so that the water discharged from the safety valve can smoothly flow into the sewage pipe when the water pressure of the water supply pipe exceeds the standard, thus avoiding the occurrence of a safety accident.

Anti-poisoning and anoxic: Gas water heaters must be installed outside the bathroom (except for balanced models) as required, and exhaust pipes are required to ensure that the gas produced by the equipment can be discharged outdoors. When bathing in a space where air does not circulate, the duration should not exceed 20 minutes. This is to avoid a dangerous accident due to insufficient oxygen in the bathroom.

Antifreeze: When the outdoor temperature is below zero degrees Celsius, the industry mainly conducts heat preservation and antifreeze measures for the water inlet and outlet pipes of the gas water heater to avoid damage to the appliance caused by freezing, or the water temperature is lowered due to the long pipeline. When wrapping the water inlet and outlet pipes of the water heater with insulation materials, be careful not to wrap the safety valve, otherwise it will affect the equipment drainage.
