WARNING-HYDROGEN GAS
is
produced by the chemical action
within your water heater. It can
accumulate in the water heater and/or
water pipes if hot water has not been used for a
period of two weeks or longer. HYDROGEN GAS
IS EXPLOSIVE. To prevent the possibility of
damage or injury, if you have not used hot water for
two weeks or more, or moved into a residence in
which the hot water system may not have been used
for some time, turn on all hot water faucets and
allow them to run for several minutes before using
any electrical appliance which is connected to the
hot water system. This will allow any hydrogen gas
to escape. Also, since the gas is flammable, do not
smoke or use an open flame or appliance during this
process.
