Gas Geysers and Carbon Monoxide: The Winter Safety Guide That Saves Lives
Carbon monoxide is odourless, invisible and produced by any gas flame short of air. In winter, with bathrooms sealed against the cold, it becomes the season's most preventable danger.
The non-negotiables
- Never install an instant geyser inside the bathroom. Mount it outside the door or on an external wall, with the flue venting outdoors.
- Keep a permanent air gap β a ventilator brick or gap under the door. If the flame burns yellow, stop and ventilate.
- Prefer flame-failure protection: modern units like the Glam Gas Instant Gas Water Heater (Tankless Geyser) cut the gas the instant the flame dies.
- Storage geysers belong outdoors or in ventilated service spaces β like the Super Asia Gas Geyser 35 Gallon on its traditional outside wall.
Know the symptoms
Headache, dizziness and nausea during a hot shower are a CO warning, not the steam. Get out, ventilate, and have the installation inspected before the next use. Safer models across Geysers.
