Corrosive   A tmospheres
The  air  in  beauty  shops,  dry  cleaning  
establishments,  photo  processing  labs,    
and  storage  areas  for  liquid  and  powdered  
 
bleaches  or  swimming  pool  chemicals  
often  contains  such  halogenated  
hydrocarbons  and/or  corrosives.
An  air  supply  containing  halogenated  
hydrocarbons  may  be  safe  to  breathe,    
but  when  it  passes  through  a  gas  flame,  
corrosive  elements  are  released  that    
will  shorten  the  life  of  any  gas  burning  
appliance.
Inspect  Shipment
Inspect  the  water  heater  for  possible  damage.  Check  the  markings  on  the  rating  plate  of  
the  water  heater  to  be  certain  the  type  of  gas  supplied  corresponds  to  the  water  heater  
requirements.  Verify  all  included  parts  are  present  (see  below).
