A: Hi Jiem and thank you for your question. If the pressure of the water entering your house is 100 psi or above, it can damage the plumbing. The pressure will cause dripping faucets and leaks in the pipes. It's also harmful to water-using appliances, such as water heaters, dishwashers, and laundry machines.

Answer This Question
A: Thank you for your question. Locate the water heater in a clean dry area as near as practical to the area of greatest heated water demand. Long un-insulated hot water lines can waste energy and water. Place the water heater in such a manner that the thermostat and element access panels can be removed to permit inspection and servicing such as removal of elements or checking controls. DalJ, The water heater and water lines should be protected from freezing temperatures. Do not install the water heater in outdoor, unprotected areas. Make certain the floor underneath the water heater is strong enough to sufficiently support the weight of the water heater once it is filled with water. The water heater should not be located in an area where leakage of the tank or connections will result in damage to the area adjacent to it or to lower floors of the structure. Where such areas cannot be avoided, it is recommended that a suitable catch pan, adequately drained, be installed under the water heater.
