Sanook Thai Caption: Mysterious steam

 

Sanook went to visit a 66 year old man called Thanakorn Angbunreuang in Chang Khlan sub-district of Muang Chiang Mai.

 

He gleefully showed them where steam was coming up by a wall.

 

He said you could feel heat in the area but he was assured there was no fire.

 

He investigated and found fluctuating electrical currents. But a qualified electrical professional had assured him the electrics were all in working order.

 

He said the house was built there 60 years ago and additional concrete was poured 20 years ago and there had been no problems since. 

 

He doubted the electrical expert and was preparing to seek a second opinion convinced it was an electrics issue.

That´s not electric. It the lucky lottery god, making a new mystery for finding the right numbers.

You've come to the right place.

Our team of AN members will have this important issue solved before sundown. 

Strange things obviously happen sometimes. But this is nothing compared to what happened in Italy many years ago. I found a corresponding post on the net: As you can see from this report everything was undertaken involving the highest authorities to explain the phenomena - but until today to no avail:

Was the house built on a landfill by any chance, because landfill land which has been reclaimed, can cause this effect, even after many years?

There are geothermally active areas in Thailand, Chiang Mai being one of them. It's home to Thailand's only geothermal power plant near Wiang Fang.

I'll stir the pot;

its volcanic activity heating up the underground water. Soon he will have his own steam  bath.

No. The electricity in Thailand is provided and maintained by higher powers

He should tap into it and use it as a heating/cooking source of energy... cheaper than gas.

I had steam coming out of concrete a couple of months ago. Cause - old electrical wire from lighting not disconnected, just dumped on the ground and concreted over

Didn't notice the electric bill increasing?

Bill only comes once a month....  flooding probably completed the circuit.
