Home hot water heater safety.
z
Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced
in your hot water heater that has not been used for two
weeks or more. Hydrogen gas can be explosive under these
circumstances. To prevent the possibility of damage or injury,
you should turn on all hot water faucets in your home, and let
the water flow out for several minutes before connecting to your
washing machine. This will allow any built up hydrogen gas to
escape. Since hydrogen gas is flammable, do not smoke or use
an open flame or start appliance during this process.
