Kukhala otetezeka kunyumba

Monga anthu ambiri, mwina mumakhala otetezeka mukakhala kunyumba. Koma pali zoopsa zobisika zobisalira ngakhale kunyumba. Kugwa ndi moto ndizomwe zili pamndandanda wazowopsa zomwe zingapewe thanzi lanu.

Kodi mwachitapo kanthu kuti nyumba yanu ikhale yotetezeka momwe zingakhalire? Gwiritsani ntchito mndandandawu kuti muwone zovuta zomwe zingakhalepo.

Muyenera:

• Sungani zida zoyambira zothandizira m'nyumba mwanu.
• Sungani mndandanda wa manambala azadzidzidzi pafupi ndi foni yanu. Phatikizani nambala zam'deralo zamoto, apolisi, makampani othandizira, ndi malo owongolera poyizoni (800) 222-1222.
• Onetsetsani kuti nambala yanu ya nyumba ndiyosavuta kuyiona mumsewu, ngati galimoto yadzidzidzi ifunika kuyiyang'ana.

Kugwa ndi chimodzi mwazomwe zimayambitsa kuvulala mnyumba. Kuwaletsa:

• Sungani misewu yoyenda panja ndi nyumba yanu yoyera komanso yowala bwino.
• Ikani magetsi ndi zotchingira magetsi pamwamba ndi pansi pamasitepe.
• Chotsani zingwe kapena zingwe zomwe simumadutsa kuchokera kuchipinda china kupita china.
• Chotsani zoponya zosasunthika.
• Konzani pansi ponse paliponse pakhomo.

Phunzirani chitetezo chamoto m'nyumba ndi kunja kwa nyumba:

• Ikani ma grill amakala ndi makala kutali ndi kwanu, njanji zapamtunda, ndi pansi pa mafunde ndi nthambi zokulirapo.
• Sungani masamba a mtengo ndi singano padenga lanu, padenga, ndi pakhoma.
• Sunthani chilichonse chomwe chingatenthe mosavuta (mulch, masamba, singano, nkhuni, ndi zomera zosachedwa kuyaka) osachepera mamita asanu kuchokera kunja kwa nyumba yanu. Lumikizanani ndi gulu lanu la Cooperative Extension yakomweko kuti mupeze mndandanda wazomera zomwe zimayaka komanso zotentha m'dera lanu.
• Dulani nthambi zomwe zimapachika panyumba panu ndikutchera nthambi za mitengo yayikulu mpaka 6 mpaka 10 pansi.

Ngati mumagwiritsa ntchito moto kapena mbaula yamatabwa:

• Wotani nkhuni zokha zouma zokha. Izi zimathandiza kuteteza mwaye mu chinsalu kapena flue, zomwe zingayambitse moto wa chimney.
• Gwiritsani ntchito galasi kapena chitsulo patsogolo panu pamoto panu kuti ziphuphu zisatuluke ndikuyambitsa moto.
• Onetsetsani kuti chitseko chachitofu cha nkhuni chimatsekedwa bwino.
• Khalani ndi akatswiri kuti ayang'ane malo anu amoto, chimbudzi, flue, ndi chimney kamodzi pachaka. Ngati zingafunike, ayeretseni ndi kuwakonza.

Carbon monoxide (CO) ndi mpweya womwe simutha kuwona, kununkhiza, kapena kulawa. Utsi wozimitsa moto wamagalimoto ndi magalimoto, masitovu, magasi, ndi makina otenthetsera amakhala ndi CO. Mpweyawu umatha kumangika m'malo otsekedwa kumene mpweya wabwino sungalowemo. Kupuma CO yambiri kungakupangitseni kudwala kwambiri ndipo kumatha kukhala koopsa. Kuteteza poizoni wa CO m'nyumba mwanu:

• Ikani chojambulira cha CO (chofanana ndi alarm ya utsi) mnyumba mwanu. Zoyesera zitha kukhala pansi panu mnyumba. Ikani chowunikira china pafupi ndi zida zilizonse zoyatsa mafuta (monga ng'anjo kapena chotenthetsera madzi).
• Chojambulira chikalowetsa mu magetsi, onetsetsani kuti ili ndi batri yosungira. Ma alarm ena amamva utsi komanso CO.
• Onetsetsani kuti makina anu otenthetsera nyumba ndi zida zanu zonse zikugwira ntchito moyenera.
• Osasiya galimoto ikuyenda mu garaja, ngakhale chitseko cha garaja chatsegulidwa.
• Musagwiritse ntchito jenereta mkati mwanyumba yanu kapena garaja kapena kunja kwa zenera, chitseko, kapena potsegula zomwe zimalowa mnyumba yanu.

Malo onse ogulitsira magetsi pafupi ndi madzi ayenera kutetezedwa ndi Ground-Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI). Amafunikira muzipinda zosamaliza, mosungira, panja, ndi kulikonse pafupi ndi sinki. Amasokoneza magetsi ngati wina wakumana ndi mphamvu zamagetsi. Izi zimalepheretsa kugwedezeka kwamagetsi kowopsa.

Muyeneranso:

• Fufuzani mawaya otayirira kapena opindika onse pazida zamagetsi.
• Onetsetsani kuti mulibe zingwe zamagetsi pansi pa makalapeti kapena pakhomo lazitseko. Osayika zingwe m'malo omwe angapitebe.
• Khalani ndi katswiri wamagetsi kuti aone mapulagi kapena malo ogulitsira omwe amamva kutentha.
• Osachulukitsa malo ogulitsira. Ikani pulagi imodzi yokha yamagetsi yamagetsi pamagetsi. Onetsetsani kuti musapitirire ndalama zomwe mumaloleza kugulitsa kamodzi.
• Gwiritsani ntchito mababu oyatsa omwe ndi madzi oyenera.

Onetsetsani kuti malo ogulitsa magetsi ndi abwino kwa ana. Onjezani mapulagi kapena zokutira zomwe zimalepheretsa ana kuti asakanikirane ndi zotengera. Sunthani mipando patsogolo pa mapulagi kuti isatuluke.

Onetsetsani kuti zida zanu zonse zapanyumba zikuyenda bwino. Onetsetsani kuti zida zanu zonse zamagetsi, zingwe, ndi zida zanu zayesedwa ndi labotale yoyeserera yodziyimira pawokha, monga UL kapena ETL.

Zipangizo zamagetsi:

• Mukhale ndi zida zilizonse zoyatsa gasi monga zotenthetsera madzi otentha kapena ng'anjo kamodzi pachaka. Funsani katswiri kuti awonetsetse kuti zida zamagetsi zatulutsidwa moyenera.
• Galimoto yoyendetsa ndege ikazima, gwiritsani ntchito valavu yoyimitsa yomwe ili pamalopo kuti muzimitse gasi. Dikirani kwa mphindi zingapo kuti mpweya ubwerere musanayese kuyambiranso.
• Ngati mukuganiza kuti pali mpweya wotulutsa gasi, tulutsani aliyense m'nyumba. Ngakhale kamoto kakang'ono kangayambitse kuphulika. Osayatsa zoyatsira zilizonse, kuyatsa magetsi, kuyatsa zotentha zilizonse, kapena kugwiritsa ntchito zida zina zamagetsi. Musagwiritse ntchito mafoni, matelefoni, kapena matochi. Mukakhala kutali ndi malowa, itanani 911 kapena nambala yadzidzidzi yakomweko, kapena kampani yamafuta nthawi yomweyo.

Ng'anjo:

• Sungani mpweya wabwino kuti usakhale ndi zotchinga.
• Sinthani fyuluta yamoto osachepera miyezi itatu iliyonse mukamagwiritsa ntchito. Sinthani mwezi uliwonse ngati muli ndi chifuwa kapena ziweto.

Chotenthetsera madzi:

• Ikani kutentha kosaposa madigiri 120.
• Sungani malo ozungulira thanki ku chilichonse chomwe chingayake moto.

Choumitsira:

• Sambani mtangawo pambuyo pochapa zovala zonse.
• Gwiritsani ntchito cholumikizira chotsuka kuti muzitsuka mkatikati mwa choumitsira kamodzi kanthawi.
• Gwiritsani ntchito choumitsira mukakhala kunyumba; chimitseni ngati mutuluka.

Chitetezo cha m'bafa ndi chofunikira makamaka kwa okalamba ndi ana. Malangizo onse ndi awa:

• Ikani mateti osagwedezeka kapena zisilamu za mphira za mphira mu mphika kuti muteteze kugwa.
• Gwiritsani ntchito mateti osasamba kunja kwa beseni poyenda mwamphamvu.
• Ganizirani kugwiritsa ntchito lever imodzi pamapope anu osambira ndikusamba kuti musakanize madzi otentha ndi ozizira limodzi.
• Sungani zida zazing'ono zamagetsi (zowumitsa tsitsi, zometera, zopindika) zosatsekedwa osazigwiritsa ntchito. Gwiritsani ntchito kutali ndi malo osambira, zitsime, ndi magwero ena amadzi. Osalowetsa m'madzi kuti mupeze chida chogwera pokhapokha mutachimasula.
