Odor from the hot water system
Many water supplies contain sufficient amounts of sulfur to produce an odor, often
called “sulfur water.” Sulfur water can be caused by a chemical action or by
bacteria. Generally, sulfur water is not harmful, only unpleasant to smell. Refer to
the water heater manufacturer’s owners manual for details on eliminating the odor
from sulfur water. Odor from sulfur water is not a service problem.
WARNING
Do not alter the operation or change the design/construction of your water
heater. For your safety, only factory authorized parts should be used on your
water heater. Accessories marketed for recreation vehicles, such as an “add-
on” electric heating elements, are not recommended by the manufacturer.
Such items are not approved to be installed and could create an unsafe
condition and will void all warranties
WARNING
If you smell propane gas then STOP! and follow the procedures listed in the
Propane System Section before attempting to operate the water heater.
