There were two consecutive cases of suspected carbon monoxide poisoning by citizens using gas water heaters. Lu Jueqiang, a fellow of the British Institution of Mechanical Engineers, pointed out that carbon monoxide is produced if the fuel and air ratio is improper. If inhaling carbon monoxide in a closed room for half an hour can be fatal, so use an exhaust fan to pump It will be safer to take the gas.
He also pointed out that some gas water heaters can see the color of the flame in the water heater through the glass. If the flame is not blue, there is a problem. You should find maintenance personnel to repair or replace the water heater directly to avoid danger.
Lu Jueqiang pointed out that there is no danger of carbon monoxide poisoning in electric furnaces, and there are some problems with gas-fired water heaters, but it can be solved by turning on the exhaust fan.

He pointed out that inhaling carbon monoxide in a closed room for half an hour can be fatal. When inhaling carbon monoxide, symptoms such as dizziness, headache, and nausea will appear. It's the safest.
