Regarding the incident in Shaoguan where a coach took female students to a hotel, resulting in 1 death and 1 injury due to carbon monoxide poisoning; direct-fired gas water heaters can be deadly, and their hazards are severe. Regarding accommodation issues in the future, what methods are there to identify direct-fired gas water heaters?

One death and one injury caused by carbon monoxide poisoning; keep areas well-ventilated

Carbon monoxide poisoning: direct-fired water heaters lack flues and have poor ventilation.

It’s better to use electricity; it’s relatively safer!

Direct vent water heaters pose significant safety risks; their use was banned in 2000. These heaters lack flues and discharge waste smoke directly into the room, which is easy to identify.

It’s still the safety of electricity. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Gas water heaters are generally equipped with combustible gas alarms, and they are not installed in enclosed areas to ensure good ventilation.
