What is this? A gas water heater called ONYX can be sold with the wrong label. It looks the same but is made only for natural gas, not for liquefied petroleum gas.
What's happening? Some ONYX heaters may be in stores or homes with the wrong packaging. This could lead to a dangerous gas mix-up.
Does this affect me? If you own an ONYX gas water heater, especially one bought recently, check the label carefully.
What should I do? Stop using the heater right away and ask your gas company or a qualified technician to inspect it. Talk to your gas company or a professional before turning it back on.
