Hydrogen Gas
If the hot water is not used for weeks or more, a quantity of hydrogen
gas which is highly flammable, may accumulate in the storage tank.
To dissipate this safely, it is recommended a hot tap (non electrical) be
turned on for minutes at a sink, basin or bath. During this procedure
there must be no smoking, open flame or any other appliance operating
nearby.
If hydrogen is discharged through the tap, it will make a sound like air
escaping.
