Public Advised to Have Boilers Checked Amid Health Warnings: South Thames Plumbing and Heating Comments
Sunbury on Thames, England -- (SBWire) -- 08/21/2015 --There have been urgent warnings over carbon monoxide poisoning, especially after the National Grid says it was called to over 9,500 cases of carbon monoxide poisoning in the space of 5 months last year. The Gas Safe Register is urging everyone to have their appliances checked, with summer an important time to take this crucial consideration. And presumably this means repairs must be conducted and completed with haste in order to avoid any health hazards.
Carbon monoxide poisoning is often called the 'silent killer' as often there is not a distinct smell or indication of its presence until it has had its impact on the human body. A surprisingly high number of lives are lost in the UK because of it. And the primary cause and source of the toxic substance is appliances such as boilers.
