hydroGen Gas (flaMMaBle)

Hydrogen gas can be produced in a hot water system served by this boiler

that has not been used for a long period of time (generally two weeks or

more). Hydrogen gas is extremely flammable. To reduce the risk of injury

under these conditions, it is recommended that the hot water faucet be

opened for several minutes at the kitchen sink before using any electrical

appliance connected to the hot water system. If hydrogen is present there

will probably be an unusual sound such as air escaping through the pipe

as the water begins to flow. THERE SHOULD BE NO SMOKING OR

OPEN FLAME NEAR THE FAUCET AT THE TIME IT IS OPEN.
