Natural gas currently makes up about a quarter of the world’s energy provisions. In a global effort to reduce our carbon emissions, more and more countries are turning to liquefied natural gases (LNG) as an alternative to traditional fossil fuels. LNGs emit 30% less carbon dioxide than oil and up to 60% less than traditional coal plants.

When the temperatures drop with the winter months most site managers won’t consider the effect on their emergency showers. 

The international standard for safety showers and eye/face wash equipment, ANSI Z358.1-2014 specifies that water delivered by an emergency safety shower must be tepid. Safety showers provide immediate relief for employees splashed with hazardous chemicals.

The water, delivered at a minimum of 76 litres per minute for 15 minutes, washes the chemical from the skin and out of the eyes. However, a safety shower that operates outside of the tepid water range can cause more harm to a victim.
