WARNING
Hydrogen gas can be produced in the
water heater system served by a water
heater that has not been used for an
extended period of time, usually two
weeks or more. Hydrogen gas is
extremely flammable. Due to risk of
injury under these conditions, it is
recommended that the hot water fau-
cet be opened at the sink and the sys-
tem totally filled before turning on
the water heater. If hydrogen gas is
present in the water system, there will
probably be an unusual sound such as
air escaping through the pipe as the
water begins to flow. NEVER smoke
or allow open flames near the faucet
at the moment it is first turned on
after an extended idle period or refill-
ing of an empty system.
CAUTION
Never turn the water heater switch on
until water heater has been filled with
water. Always drain the water heater
when there is any chance of freezing.
