PG&E入冬前提供免费上门燃气器具安全检查与点火服务：2026年以来已响应逾6,300起疑似一氧化碳事件
总部位于加利福尼亚州阿拉米达县奥克兰市的太平洋瓦电公司（PG&E）11 月 2 日宣布，在寒冷季节到来前，为客户提供免费上门燃气器具安全检查，并免费重新点燃壁炉与暖气设备的引导火种（pilot）。检查对象包括热水器、熔炉与烤箱等燃气器具。
PG&E 表示，免费检查旨在确认燃气器具运行安全高效，降低一氧化碳中毒风险。该公司指出，一氧化碳无色、无味、无声，难以察觉。据其引用的美国疾病控制与预防中心数据，全美每年有逾 400 人死于与火灾无关的非故意一氧化碳中毒，逾 100,000 人因此前往急诊，逾 14,000 人住院。
该公司同时公布，2026 年以来，PG&E 已响应逾 6,300 起疑似存在一氧化碳的事件。PG&E 提醒客户，不要在室内使用会产生危险浓度一氧化碳的产品，如发电机、户外烤架或丙烷取暖器，也不要用烤箱、炉灶等烹饪器具为房屋取暖。
PG&E 表示，客户可通过其渠道预约免费检查与点火服务。检查与点火不收取费用。
PG&E Offers Free In-Home Gas Appliance Safety Checks and Pilot Re-Lights Ahead of Cold Weather; Company Has Responded to More Than 6,300 Suspected Carbon Monoxide Incidents in 2026
Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E), headquartered in Oakland, Alameda County, California, announced on November 2 that it is offering free in-home gas appliance safety checks, along with free pilot re-lights, to help customers prepare their appliances for safe use in the cold weather months ahead. The checks cover gas appliances including water heaters, furnaces and ovens.
PG&E says the free checks help ensure gas appliances are operating safely and efficiently, reducing the risk of carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning, and notes that carbon monoxide cannot be seen, smelled or heard. Citing figures from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the company says more than 400 Americans die each year from unintentional CO poisoning not linked to fires, more than 100,000 visit the emergency room, and more than 14,000 are hospitalized.
Since the start of 2026, PG&E says it has responded to more than 6,300 incidents where the presence of carbon monoxide was suspected. The company advises customers never to use products inside the home that generate dangerous levels of carbon monoxide, such as generators, outdoor grills or propane heaters, and never to use cooking devices such as ovens or stoves for home heating.
Customers can schedule the free safety checks and pilot re-light service through PG&E's customer channels, the company says. There is no charge for the visit.
