Medical gases are vital in the world of health because they are closely related to patient safety and survival. Therefore, the distribution of medical gas is a priority for health facilities.
The reason is, behind this interest, medical gas has the property of being easily contaminated by various conditions. One mistake can make the gas become polluted or even turn into poison.


Essential Things in Medical Gas Distribution Installation
The government also sets standards for medical gas installations that every hospital must comply with to guarantee this. At least pay attention to the following vital things in the medical gas installation process:
