Alarm saves Regina couple from carbon monoxide

Jim and Linda Dickenson decorate their heritage home to draw people from across Regina to be spooked there on Halloween night. But they were the ones to get a serious scare at home one summer evening. A colourless, odourless, and tasteless poison was drifting up from their basement and lingering near their second-floor bedroom, one that, over time, could send them to hospital — or even worse. Jim’s phone rang, surprising them while they watched a loud action movie. They were up on the third floor of their home that warm, dark evening. Their security company was calling. A presence had been...

‘We’re just super lucky’: A close encounter with carbon monoxide

For weeks, Ross Carolan and his family felt sick but didn’t know why. Ross, his wife and their two young children were all feeling lethargic and coughing. Even their cat was irritable instead of her usual friendly self. This was in fall 2022. In what seemed like an unrelated issue at the time, the humidifier on Ross’s furnace had been leaking water, so he contacted a plumbing and heating company. This call may have saved their lives. The furnace technician used a Gas Measurement Instrument and found the furnace room contained 385 parts per million (ppm) of carbon monoxide (CO) — a life...

Drones offer an eye in the sky

It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s a little of both?! It’s actually a drone equipped with a camera, and it has been providing SaskEnergy with several benefits over the last two summers. “Using a drone gives a bird’s eye view of our construction and reclamation work,” says Ashley Syrgiannis of our Environment & Sustainability team. “They are efficient from a time and cost perspective, and they allow us to make more informed environmental decisions.” Prior to a construction project, Ashley and her team use a drone to assist in environmental field surveys. “A drone can help get into areas that are...
