Boilers At Hospital Switching to Diesel



Children's Hospital posted this information:



Boilers At Hospital Switching to Diesel

Last week, Puget Sound Energy (PSE) notified Seattle Children’s (along with other large institutions in the area) to reduce natural gas usage until further notice while emergency repairs are made to the regional gas system. 
Boilers at the hospital campus will switch to diesel fuel until Children’s is advised to switch back to natural gas. The boilers are critical for heating the hospital and powering steam production for sterile supplies. 
Nearby neighbors and workforce members may temporarily see and smell diesel fumes coming from the hospital during this time. 
For any questions or concern email construction@seattlechildrens.org.
