Never store flammable liquids such as gasoline, primers, adhesives or solvents near your water heater, furnace, or other gas-fired appliances. This may seem obvious, but you can never be too cautious when it comes to the safety of your family and home.
Having a flood alarm installed on your washing machine, and water heater is a great way to prevent what could be a disaster in your basement or laundry room. Flooding in your home can be extremely damaging and costly, so it is always worth it to take the extra step now, to avoid problems in the future.
