snoop1130 Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 A fire reportedly caused by a malfunctioning gas tank burned the kitchen of a Chinese man’s house in Pattaya yesterday, October 16th. The Pattaya fire crew and rescue services rushed to a house in the Sabaijai village in the Nongprue subdistrict of Banglamung to extinguish a fire that broke out around midday. A group of Chinese tourists stayed in the house, and they were all in a panic about the fire, according to rescue workers. The fire crew sprayed water into the kitchen and took only a moment to snuff out the fire.

Iamfalang Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Every day I see about 90832475934520734855437 possible dangerous scenarios. I'm very surprised this doesn't happen more often, and WHY do I sit next to the gas tank when I eat lunch. I know why, that's where the most comfortable chair is and it's a corner table where I can stare at all my massage ex-gf's as they eat lunch. Note: Pick another seat you dumb falang!!!!

RichardColeman Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Story fails to say if THEY installed the gas tank or a company installed it. If they went out and bought a canister and fixed it up themselves, this will cost them big time 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two weeks later I ran low on gas; the 'engineer' had failed to tighten things up & it was leaking gas every day. No refund so I changed company. How to build clientele - Thai style.

Think you will find 95%+ of all Thai houses have the gas canister in the house. Nothing unusual about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VocalNeal Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 The gas tank didn't cause the fire. A source of ignition started the fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing unusual about it. True but, although many rural houses do that, they are made with leaky wooden boards so any gas leaks can escape. But it is an unsafe practice.

Stargeezr Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 Was this a propane tank? If so that is what have seen in many Thai homes. In Canada a gas tank is for Gasoline, or benzine, and not propane, etc. I am a bit confused about this story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
