External water heater safety
zUnder 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 ow out for
several minutes before connecting to your washer. This will allow any built-up
hydrogen gas to escape. Since hydrogen gas is ammable, do not smoke or use
an open ame or start appliance during this process.
