Begusarai: Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana has brought an LPG connection to every household. Till yesterday, food was cooked on earthen stoves in homes. Now food is cooked on gas stoves in almost every home. In which a pipe is used along with the gas cylinder to deliver gas to the stove. But when the gas cylinder runs out. Then it is refilled. Along with this, no attention is paid to the pipe coming into the gas stove and the cylinder. Due to this, a big accident can happen anytime. The gas accidents that happened in many villages including Kumbhi of Begusarai are examples of this. In such a situation, today we tell you about the benefits of changing this pipe and the government subsidy available…
The maximum age of the pipe is 4 years.
Ramkumar Verma, director of Verma Gas Agency in Begusarai, told Local 18 that customers use cooking gas but do not change the pipe. According to the guidelines, the maximum age limit of a pipe is 4 years. After this, using it is at the risk of the customers. The gas agency does inform the customers but the customers do not show interest.
Talking about the benefits of replacing it, after the expiry date, the gas pressure in the cylinder may reduce, which may cause safety concerns. You can avoid this problem by using a new pipe. While using a new pipe can increase the working and life of the gas cylinder, it also gives you legal benefits like insurance benefits in case of an accident etc.
Change your LPG connection pipe in this way.
According to Bharat Gas Agency operator Ramkumar Verma, customers now have to spend only Rs 100 to change the pipe. Whereas the price in the market is more than 200. If you are using the pipe without replacing it on time, it can also have negative effects on your health. Make sure that you are using a new pipe so that your family is safe. For this, you have to go to the gas agency with the LPG connection card. Then you have to request for pipe replacement. Then the agency technician will go and do your safety check for free.
Replacing expired pipes is a symbol of cleanliness and social responsibility. Through this, you can increase social awareness and also make people around you aware of its importance.
