Choose stove 6 attention

The Provincial Bureau of Quality Supervision reminded consumers that when purchasing gas appliances, it is necessary to pay attention to the purchase of gas sources, structure, and product quality, and to replace them before the use of household gas appliances expires.

1. Each gas appliance corresponds to a gas source. The gas appliance must be used in the same way as the gas source it is used for. The use of an incorrect gas source can cause the combustion of the gas appliance to deteriorate and it may not even work.

2. According to home requirements, according to the installation method to determine the need to purchase the structure of gas appliances, such as gas stoves have embedded and desktop stove points, but also consider the size of heating power to meet the requirements.

3. When purchasing an embedded stove, be sure to check whether the flameout protection device is installed. Do not buy the flameout protection device. Do not buy the stove because the stove of the embedded stove is installed in a sealed kitchen cabinet. Once an accident occurs, it will turn off. Gas leaks cause the gas to accumulate in the mounting cabinet. When the leaked gas reaches a certain concentration, it can easily cause deflagration and ignition. At the same time, it is also necessary to check whether the function of the flameout protection device of the embedded stove is normal.

4. Priority should be given to the selection of products of well-known enterprises with large scale, good product quality and good service quality. Due to advanced equipment, complete detection means, and high management level, large companies have stable product quality, reliable performance, and excellent after-sales service.

5. Gas appliances purchased should carefully check the completeness of accessories such as packing boxes, nameplates and manuals; then check the surface quality, processing technology and cooperation, etc.; more importantly, check whether the airtightness of the gas appliances purchased is good , If possible, check if the combustion has any abnormalities such as tempering, yellow flame, and detached flame.

6. The service life of household gas appliances under normal conditions of use is generally 8 years, and should be replaced promptly after expiration.
