Water Heater Defects and Dangers

Fires and Explosions from Ignition of Flammable Vapor Leaks
Each year more than 300 injuries or deaths result from the approximately 2,000 fires involving gas water heaters and flammable vapors. It is important for people to be aware of the dangers posed by flammable vapors and to take the necessary steps that are needed to keep children safe. Gas water heaters can cause catastrophic injuries when they are defective or lack proper safety mechanisms.
Legal Rights of the Injured
The law in most states provides individuals with legal claims and the right to compensation for injuries they suffer as a result of a defective product or the negligence of another. The injured person may file a lawsuit seeking compensation for his or her pain and suffering, medical expenses, lost past and future wages and punitive damages.
