Gradually the season of winter has arrived. It has started getting cold in the morning and evening, due to which people have to wear full-sleeved clothes. At the same time, it is quite cold on a two-wheeler. Amidst all this, a lot changes with the arrival of winter, one of which is using hot water instead of cold water. People use hot water for washing utensils, washing clothes taking baths, etc. But not everyone has a geyser, so many people heat water with the help of immersion rods. In such a situation, if you also heat water with a rod, then you should take special care of some things. Otherwise, an accident may occur. So let's know about this...
Rod users should keep these things in mind: -
Number 1
Whenever you go to plant a rod, make sure to wear slippers on your feet. Never try to row a rod or touch a moving rod or water without wearing slippers. If you do this, you may get electrocuted.
Number 2
Do not walk with wet feet at the place where the rod has been installed, nor spill water there. Many people put a rod in the bathroom and then keep touching it with wet feet. Don't do this even by mistake.
Number 3
If you also heat water with a rod, then you should keep it away from children. If you have small children in your house, then put a rod in the bathroom and put a gate so that the children cannot go there. Otherwise, they may get electrocuted.
Number 4
Many people have a habit that when their rod becomes old or its wire gets cut, they repair it themselves. You have to keep in mind here that if the wire of the rod has been cut at a large place, then get it replaced by an electrician and if the rod is causing problems, then replace it with a new rod.
