Gas explosion Ansfelden – “It was a mistake, then the walls shook”

Date:

After the huge gas explosion in Ansfelden – which injured a man – it is now a matter of processing what happened. How are the residents doing, when can they go home and how did the explosion start? The “Krone” has the answers.

“It made noise, the walls shook”, Werner B. (59) describes the dramatic minutes after the gas explosion in Ansfelden. A huge groundwater leak occurred on Tuesday evening at a deep bore for a heat pump – up to 1000 liters of water flowed through the borehole to the surface. At 5:30 p.m., firefighters began pumping out the gas – it was immediately determined that gas was also escaping. “When the measurements were made, the value was well below the explosion limit,” says firefighter manager Helmut Födermayr.
