Gas heating is widely used in Australia. We heat, cook and refrigerate with it. With gas we are enjoying the conveniences more and more with the supply of natural gas plus technological advances in gas products. However, it is essential to recognise the safety risks associated with not properly maintaining your gas appliances to prevent damage to the unit, explosion or fire in the home or even carbon monoxide poisoning.

Damage to The Unit

Reading and adhering to safety and operating instructions for all gas appliances is essential for efficient running of the unit and to prevent damage to the structure itself and surrounding areas. Incorrect use of the product will more than likely void a warranty and leave you with a costly repair bill (and a cold house!).

Explosion or Fire

An obviously highly undesirable outcome from faulty use of gas appliances is the explosion of gas with heat and fire. A small incident can leave you without an appliance, a more significant one can leave you without your house, or with serious injury. Follow all operating and safety instructions on your gas heater to prevent disastrous consequences.

Carbon Monoxide Poisoning

Faulty, un-serviced heaters are the main source of carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning in the home. An odourless gas that can be fatal if consumed for too long in a closed space, carbon monoxide can leak from gas heater units at any time, despite how old the system may be. All gas heating systems in your home should be serviced and tested for CO spillage at least every two years.

Save water, capture it in a large bowl or the sink

We always wanted our surrounding to be clean, especially the food that we eat. One way to ensure that your fruits and veggies are clean is to wash them water first before eating or cooking. Water has the ability to clean our food and retain its nutrients for us to consume.

Wash fruits

Reasons to wash your veggies

Dirt on fruit and veggies often contain natural fertiliser like manure. Can you imagine putting such thing to your mouth? Fruits and veggies can also be contaminated by animals and poor hygiene among the workers who handles the produce.
Microorganisms like yeast, mould and bacteria can make your fresh produce spoil in a short period of time. When eaten, it can give you a nasty stomach ache.
Human pathogens like E.Coli and salmonella could live in an unwashed fruit too.

For your health, it is best to wash your fruits and veggies first. When washing your fruits and veggies, how do you do it? Do you wash it under running water? If yes, then you might have cleaned your fruits and veggies but you are wasting a lot of water! Once you turn that tap on – you don’t realise how much water you’re actually wasting. Why not get your fruits and veggies clean and still save ample amount of water? That way, you can have clean food to eat while not feeling guilty of wasting too much water.

Save water, capture it in a large bowl or the sink

How? Get a large bowl or fill your sink with water. By capturing it in a large bowl or the sink, you can wash your fruits and veggies properly. After it is cleaned, you can then use the water to your indoor plants. See, you get clean food and managed to water your plants with the same water. No water is lost!
