Even the controls are covered and out of reach of inquisitive children's fingers. An electric water heater is cool, too. That's because thick insulation keeps heat inside the tank. Children can safely play next to it. You can safely store so many items next to an electric water heater because there is no dangerous flame or ex cessive heat. " : , It's completely automatic, too. All you need to do is turn the faucet narked "hot." There are no fuel lines that can become clogged; nothing to clean. No dangerous gases or fumes, either.
