Gwonseon-gu Installation of 'Boilers of Love' Through 'Three-Way Coordination'

Gwonseon-gu (District Head Kim Jeong-soo), the Ministry of Justice's Crime Prevention Council Suwon Region Gwonseon District Council (Chairperson Choi Seon-im), and the National Boiler Equipment Association Suwon·Hwaseong Branch (National Vice President Ryu Dae-yeol) announced on the 4th that they completed the repair and replacement of "Boilers of Love" for 10 households that applied for first-phase repairs and replacements from the 14th to the 23rd of last month.

Ryu Dae-yeol, National Vice President of the National Boiler Association Suwon·Hwaseong Branch, who visited target households to check boiler conditions, expressed regret that residents in difficult financial circumstances were unable to turn on their boilers and were exposed to fire hazards by using electric heating pads as heating devices. He proposed to Gwonseon-gu a plan to replace electric heating pads with safe hot water mats in the second half of the year. For the four households with newly replaced boilers, he personally delivered rice and instant noodles prepared together with members of the Crime Prevention Gwonseon Council.

Low-income residents wishing to have boilers repaired or replaced through the Boilers of Love program may apply at any time at their respective neighborhood community centers. Following a survey by the District Administration Support Division and Living Convenience Team and the Crime Prevention Gwonseon Council, the National Boiler Equipment Association Suwon·Hwaseong Branch plans to promptly carry out the repairs and replacements.
