The on-site news pointed out that in the locker room and the restroom of the incident, a water heater exploded inside and caused a fire. Due to the huge explosive power, the airflow impact caused by the explosion of multiple brick walls and gates collapsed, and the scene was destroyed. The staff is searching and rescued in the rubble to see if anyone is trapped. At the same time, the cause of the accident is being further investigated. It is not ruled out that there is a malfunction of the water heater. Affected by the accident, the police station has to temporarily close the round-trip line of Princess Margaret Road and the traffic on the site is seriously congested.

Made in china?


Chinese water heaters are so good and reliable and with variety. I had used giant ones that are floor standing and taller than a person. Approx 2m. They are very old and very safe. Never had such risk. HK eat shit can not even handle a simple 3rd world technology device safely.

There are at least 3 minimum safety protection that must fail altogether to have explosion:

  1. Thermostat - over heat protection, cut off above safe temperature.
  2. Pressure senor - heater electrical cut off.
  3. Mechanical pressure relief valve, steam let out, never allow pressure to rise.
There should be more, like warning alarm and warning lights.

Mechanically a water heater container itself is not made to be a high pressure container, it should not hold up any dangerous pressure, because it is not a steam boiler. It should be easily leaking steam when slightly pressured.

Such a strong explosion looks like a gas explosion, not an electrical heater, and meaning there was gas leak, and gas accumulated in the toilet, and later ignited. This means installation and maintenance issue or operation error, or sabotage.

In China, I went to hotels, spas, restaurants, resorts... all using these:
