Dangerous Gas Hot Water Systems:
Gas water heaters that have not been properly maintained have been responsible for deaths and serious injuries. If you have a gas bath heater or flued instantaneous water heater in your bathroom or a flueless water heater in your kitchen like any of the appliances shown here (see diagram) it could be a source of danger.
If you have a water heater in your bathroom disconnect the exhaust fans to avoid circulating poisonous fumes.
The potential risk
If ventilation is obstructed in either a flued or flueless water heater, poisonous fumes such as carbon monoxide can be forced back into the room contaminating the air you breathe. As carbon monoxide is colourless, odourless and tasteless, you will be unaware of its presence.
Reducing the risk
The easiest way to reduce the risk is to replace the heater with a new, safer and more energy efficient heater, located outside the building. If you decide to do this, use an authorised gas service agent to carry out the work.
Make sure your water heater (indoor or outdoor) is serviced once a year by a licensed gas fitter.
