• Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot
water system that has not been used for 2 weeks or more.
HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not
been used for such a period, before using a washing machine, turn
on all hot water faucets and let the water flow from each for several
minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas.
As the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame
during this time.
