Avoid gas geysers
Two patients came to husband’s OPD yesterday who were found unconscious in their bathrooms this morning.
Both hot showers. Both gas geysers. Both closed doors.
This isn't about gas smell.
It's carbon monoxide , no odor, no color, no warning.
Just slow oxygen starvation to the brain.
Red flags INSIDE the bathroom: → Headache out of nowhere
→ Chakkar (dizziness)
→ Nausea or weakness
→ Unusual sleepiness
→ Confusion or brain fog
If even ONE happens switch off geyser, open door/window, step out immediately. more

As per safety standards (technical), these devices should not be installed in closed spaces. If done must have good ventilation system. In most of the developed countries this is common device and its installed outside wall just before entering the bathroom. more
