Gas leak
The most important step for someone who knows he or she has a gas leak, or suspects there might be a leak, is to get to a safe location far away from the leak. The individual should be sure to refrain from using any electrical equipment, telephones, cell phones, or cars while leaving because this could create a spark, which could ignite any gas fumes present.

Houston-area homeowners and businesses with properties damaged by the recent historical flooding caused by Hurricane Harvey are potentially facing looming problems with their climate control systems that may not be obvious to the untrained eye.
The Air-Conditioning, Heating & Refrigeration Institute, a trade association representing the heating, ventilating and air conditioning warns standing water associated with flooding can result in system failure well after the water has receded.
“Standing water in a yard or house can damage a home’s heating and cooling system in ways that are not always readily apparent, ” said Stephen Yurek, president and CEO of AHRI. “We advise homeowners to play it safe and replace, rather than repair, flood-damaged heating, cooling, and water heating equipment.”
More than 134, 500 residences in the ten-county Houston area have been damaged or destroyed by Hurricane Harvey, according to a report from the Texas Division of Emergency Management. Any air conditioning unit that has taken on water is potentially damaged. Most water-damaged units may need to be replaced, according to AHRI. A flooded home comfort system is similar to a flooded car. It may appear to operate normally, but may be prone to suffer serious problems due to the long-term impact of the water damage.
While AHRI recommends replacing a water-damaged HVAC system, the timing of when to replace is important, according to Houston-area dealers: “The vast majority of damaged homes and businesses are having drywall work done plus hardwood floors sanded, ” said Corey Boyer, owner of Air Aide, a Houston HVAC service company. “In these cases consider whether it is best to wait to run the new system until the drywall work and floors are finished because you don’t want to circulate dust and debris through a new system. It will likely contaminate it.” Source: ReevesJournal.com
Central Brass Company introduces a new Pre-Rinse Faucet, designed to help reduce water usage in commercial kitchens while providing exceptional durability and performance. The faucet’s water-saving 1.1 gallons per minute flow rate meets the EPA’s WaterSense guidelines, and the rugged brass construction is designed to last 1M+ cycles – four times the requirement for WaterSense certification.
The Central Brass Pre-Rinse Faucet is comfortable to handle and easy to use. The chrome-plated brass handle has an integrated clip to hold it in the open position for easy operation. A spring-style pre-rinse fitting offers 12-inch clearance from the mounting surface for superior maneuverability. An overhead swivel arm with extended horizontal reach is also available.
Options include an add-on faucet for pot filling that attaches near the base and can be fitted with numerous Central Brass spouts. A retrofit riser kit is available so the Pre-Rinse can be attached to existing Central Brass or other brand faucets. Additional options include an ADA-compliant lever handle, color-coded indicators and vandal-proof screws. Source: PHCPPros.com

Los Angeles officials are attempting to help homeless on Skid Row in downtown L.A. with the addition of the new Skid Row Community ReFresh Spot hygiene center, a structure to serve homeless with showers, toilets and staff offering referrals to housing and services.
The restrooms also are a response to the fight against a statewide hepatitis A outbreak spread by poor hygiene in homeless camps that has killed more than a dozen people in San Diego.
They will have full-time attendants, called “ambassadors,” to monitor the restrooms and make people feel welcome.
The latest $450,000 facility will have eight toilets and six showers, operating four days a week, in a trailer on a city-owned parking lot between two homeless housing and service agencies. In addition to attendants, the toilets will be monitored by a maintenance crew and security.
