What are the usual security risks of renting houses in old communities?

The rented houses in old communities are very friendly to some people with low incomes, but the existing security risks cannot be ignored. In particular, if some security risks affect the safety of residents, we must pay attention to avoiding them as much as possible.

Let's take a look at the security risks of rented houses in old residential areas:

First, the most common security risks should be the aging of lines and the blockage of pipelines.

Take my own home as an example. We bought it in an old residential area next to the school district to register our children, and rented the house to two office workers. Generally speaking, although the various electrical facilities of the house have been confirmed before renting, they will still call every now and then after they move in, either because the pipes are blocked or the toilets are blocked.

In fact, the pipes in the old residential areas are all old pipes, which have been unclogged for a long time. Once there is hair or other things blocking the pipes, people have to be invited to clean the sewers, and the symptoms are not cured.

In addition, when the temperature is very low in winter, it is common for water pipes to freeze and crack. If you don't pay attention to protecting the pipes, you will be waiting for yourself.

Although I haven't encountered the problem of line aging in this house, I will also see the news report that the fire house caused by line aging will cause casualties.

secondly, the fire safety problem, especially the littering of domestic garbage in the corridor and the lack of fire control facilities.

Take this old house in my own home as an example. It was built in the 198s and 199s, and at first glance it looks weather-beaten. This building is basically elderly people. Usually, some cartons, plastics and so on are reluctant to throw away, so they will put them away at the corner of the corridor.

In fact, this kind of thing is flammable. If anyone accidentally throws a cigarette butt and there is no fire control facility in the corridor, it is likely to cause a fire house. Therefore, it is very important to pay attention to this kind of fire safety problems, but now even in old communities, there will be grid workers to strengthen management, and things in the corridors will be cleaned regularly, and the safety risks will be reduced.

thirdly, the last one is the safety of the residential environment, especially for some single women who live alone.

Generally, there is neither property nor security in an old residential area. Although the property fee is saved, there is no security guarantee in this residential area. Anyone can go in and out at will, and once a bad guy follows, he can not know it.

moreover, the corridor lights in the residential area may be flickering, or they may not be on at all, so we should also pay attention to the safety problems in this area.

So how can we control these security risks if we rent such an old residential area? Don't worry, I think it's enough to pay attention to the following points ~

First, check and repair all kinds of electrical appliances and circuits at home regularly, don't use high-power appliances such as air conditioners over load, cut off the power supply before going to bed and going out, and especially remind you to replace the electrical appliances that have been out of service.

second, clean up the garbage and sundries at home in time. Don't pile up sundries on the balcony and corridor at home, which may be a fire source and an obstacle to evacuation and escape.

Third, try to travel with your friends who live together, avoid going home alone at night, and contact the landlord as soon as possible if the facilities such as door locks are damaged.

that's all I shared. I hope I can help you.
