A Review of Carbon Monoxide Incident Information for 2001/02

📖 The Scoop

This report has been written by Advantica as a continuation of the work established during the Joint Industry Programme (JIP) Addressing Carbon Monoxide Issues, within the Incident Data project area. The aim of this work is to identify common causes of CO incidents related to appliance and system design, installation and maintenance. This information can then be used to further improve customer safety, to target expenditure on CO incident prevention and to identify further research work. As part of the JIP project a national data collection scheme for piped natural gas and LPG Carbon Monoxide (CO) incidents, which occur within Great Britain, was established byAdvantica. This was with the support of the HSE and the gas industry. This report provides information collected via this national data collection scheme. This is the sixth report of a series that are being published, starting with the 1996/97 report. It covers the financial reporting period 2001/02. The incidents are only described by postcode to ensure anonymity. During this period there were 55 domestic piped natural gas incidents reported and 10 LPG incidents reported. There were no non-domestic incidents.
