Inā loaʻa iā ʻoe kahi umu ahi i loko o kāu lumi kuke, hiki ke holo ma ke kinoea maoli, ʻaʻole propane.
"ʻOi aku ka maʻalahi o ka propane, ʻo ia ke kumu i hoʻohana pinepine ʻia ai i nā barbecue, nā kapuahi hoʻomoana, a me nā kaʻa meaʻai," wehewehe ʻo Sylvia Fontaine, chef profession, restaurateur mua, a me Luna Nui a hoʻokumu i ka ʻahaʻaina ma ka Home.
Akā, e hoʻokomo i kahi pahu propane i kou home a hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻoulu i kāu kīhini me ka propane, wahi a Fontaine.
Wahi a ka Propane Education and Research Council, ʻo ka propane kahi huahana o ka hana kinoea maoli.ʻO ka propane kekahi manawa i kapa ʻia ʻo ke kinoea liquefied petroleum (LPG).
Wahi a ka National Energy Education Development (NEED), ʻo ka propane kahi kumu maʻamau o ka ikehu ma nā kuaʻāina a ma nā hale kelepona kahi i hiki ʻole ai ka hoʻohui kinoea maoli.ʻO ka mea maʻamau, loaʻa i nā hale i hoʻopiha ʻia i ka propane kahi pahu waihona e hiki ai ke paʻa i 1,000 galani o ka propane wai, e like me ka NEED.
ʻO ka ʻokoʻa, e like me ka US Energy Information Administration (EIA), hana ʻia ke kinoea kūlohelohe i nā kinoea like ʻole, ʻoi aku ka nui o ka methane.
ʻOiai e puʻunaue ʻia ke kinoea kūlohelohe ma o kahi pūnaewele pipeline kikowaena, ʻaneʻane kūʻai ʻia ka propane i nā pahu o nā ʻano nui.
"Hiki i nā kapuahi propane ke piʻi i nā mahana kiʻekiʻe ma mua o ke kinoea maoli," wahi a Fontaine.Akā, hoʻohui ʻo ia, "aia kahi hopu: pili ia i ka hana o ka papa."
Inā maʻa ʻoe i ke kinoea maoli a ua hoʻololi ʻoe i ka propane, e ʻike paha ʻoe e wela wikiwiki ana kāu pā, wahi a Fontaine.Akā ma waho aʻe o kēlā, ʻaʻole paha ʻoe e ʻike i kahi ʻokoʻa, wahi āna.
"Mai kahi hiʻohiʻona kūpono, ʻaʻole hiki ke ʻokoʻa ma waena o ka propane a me ka kuke kinoea maoli," wahi a Fontaine.
"ʻO ka pōmaikaʻi maoli o ka kuke ʻana i ka lapalapa ahi ʻoi aku ka maʻamau ma mua o ka propane stove, no laila ua maʻa paha ʻoe," wahi a Fontaine.Eia naʻe, ʻike ʻoe i ka nui o ka lapalapa āu e pono ai no nā mea āpau mai ka sautéing onions a i ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa ʻana i ka ʻuala pasta.
"ʻAʻole pili ke kinoea ponoʻī i ka kuke ʻana, akā hiki ke hoʻopilikia i ke ʻano hana kuke inā ʻaʻole lākou i kamaʻāina i ke kinoea a i ʻole propane," wahi a Fontaine.
Inā ua hoʻohana ʻoe i ka umu propane, aia paha ma waho.Hoʻolālā ʻia ka hapa nui o nā umu propane no ka hoʻohana ʻana i waho ma ke ʻano he grill a i ʻole kapuahi lawe lima.
Akā hiki ke loli nui nā kumukūʻai ma muli o kou wahi e noho ai, ke kau a me nā kumu ʻē aʻe he nui.A ʻoiai ʻoi aku ka liʻiliʻi o ke kinoea maoli, e hoʻomanaʻo ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka propane (ʻo ia hoʻi, pono ʻoe i ka propane liʻiliʻi), hiki ke hoʻolilo iā ia i mea liʻiliʻi loa, e like me Santa Energy.
He pōmaikaʻi ʻē aʻe ka propane a me ke kinoea maoli: ʻAʻole pono ʻoe e hoʻopili i ka pā, wahi a Fontaine.Hiki i kēia ke lilo i bonus maikaʻi inā noho ʻoe i kahi wahi me ka pau ʻana o ka mana.
Ma muli o ka holo ʻana o nā umu kinoea ma ke kinoea maoli ma mua o ka propane, e ʻoi aku ka nui o nā koho umu inā koho ʻoe i ke kinoea maoli, wahi a Fontaine.
Manaʻo ʻo ia e hoʻohana i ke kinoea kūlohelohe ma mua o ka propane, me ka ʻike ʻana "ua hoʻokomo ʻia nā paipu kinoea ma ka hapa nui o nā wahi noho kūlanakauhale."
“E nānā i nā ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo i hele mai me ka mea hana a i ʻole e nānā i ka lepili o ka mea hana ma ka umu e ʻike inā kūpono ia no ka hoʻohana ʻana me ka propane a i ʻole ke kinoea maoli,” wahi a Fontaine.
"Inā ʻoe e nānā i ka injector wahie, aia ka nui a me kahi helu i paʻi ʻia ma luna," wahi āna.Hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻokaʻaʻike aku i ka mea hana e ʻike inā e hōʻike ana kēlā mau helu i kūpono ka umu no ka propane a i ʻole ke kinoea maoli.
"ʻAʻole ʻōlelo ʻia ka hoʻohana ʻana i ke kinoea maoli i loko o kahi umu propane, a i ʻole ke ʻano, ʻoiai aia nā pahu hoʻololi," wahi a Fontaine.Inā makemake maoli ʻoe e hoʻohana i kekahi o kēia mau pahu, e nīnau i kahi loea, paipai ʻo Fountaine.ʻAʻole hana ʻoe iā ʻoe iho ka hoʻomaikaʻi ʻana i kāu umu.
"Hiki i ka propane a me ke kinoea maoli ke hoʻopilikia i ke olakino inā ʻaʻole hoʻokomo ʻia ka ea kūpono ma luna o ka umu," wahi a Fontaine.
I nā makahiki i hala iho nei, ua hoʻoholo kekahi mau kūlanakauhale, e like me New York a me Berkeley, i nā ʻoihana e pāpā ana i ka hoʻokomo ʻana i nā umu ahi ma nā hale hou.ʻO kēia ma muli o ka ulu ʻana o ka ʻike e pili ana i nā pilikia olakino e pili ana i nā kapuahi kinoea, ʻo ka hoʻohana ʻana i hiki ke alakaʻi i ka hoʻokuʻu ʻana i nā mea haumia a pili pū me ka pilikia o ka hoʻomohala ʻana i ka hānō i nā keiki, e like me ka California Public Interest Research Group.
Wahi a ka California Air Resources Board (ARB), inā he umu kinoea kāu, e hoʻomaʻamaʻa ʻoe e kuke me ka puʻupuʻu ākea a, inā hiki, e koho i kahi puhi ahi no ka mea ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka huki ʻana o ka ea.Inā ʻaʻohe ou puʻupuʻu, hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻohana i ka pā a i ʻole ka pā o ke kaupaku, a i ʻole nā puka a me nā puka makani no ka holo ʻana o ka ea maikaʻi e like me nā lula ARB.
Wahi a nā Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), ʻo ka puhi ʻana i nā wahie (e like me ka generator, kaʻa, a i ʻole ka umu) e hoʻopuka i ka carbon monoxide, hiki iā ʻoe ke maʻi a make paha.No ka ʻaoʻao palekana, e hoʻokomo i nā mea ʻike carbon monoxide a hoʻonohonoho i ka nānā ʻana i nā mea hana kinoea makahiki i kēlā me kēia makahiki e like me nā kuhikuhi CDC.
"Inā ʻoe e koho i ka propane a i ʻole ke kinoea maoli e hilinaʻi nui ʻia i nā mea i loaʻa ma kou wahi a me nā mea pono e kūʻai aku ai," wahi a Fontaine.
ʻO ia ke ʻano o ka poʻe noho kūlanakauhale e koho i ke kinoea kūlohelohe, ʻoiai ʻo ka poʻe noho ma nā wahi kuaʻāina e koho i ka propane, wahi āna.
"ʻOi aku ka maikaʻi o ka kuke ʻana i ke akamai o ke kuke ma mua o ke ʻano o ke kinoea i hoʻohana ʻia," wahi a Fontaine.ʻO kāna ʻōlelo aʻo: "E noʻonoʻo i ka mea āu e makemake ai e hana i kāu mea hana a he aha nā koho e kūpono i kāu kālā, me ka hoʻoluhi pono ʻana i kou home."
