H2S gas training

I'm trained in confined entry, that entails air monitoring and a SAR(supplied air resirator). We test for H2S, CO, O2 and Methane.

In my case the training was for sewer entry, which was a pretty intense 3 day course. Similarily the way our waste water system is setup there is very little chance that any of the gases would actually be present but I guess its better to be safe then sorry.

It is a way for the safety companies to make some good coin. We had all of the sensors in our gas monitor replaced in May and two of them bit the bullet today. $600 and a couple hours of labour to change them out...crazy
