Re: gas water heater
Was the flame in the gas burner yellow instead of blue, meaning out of tune? How old was the heater, it may be beyond its useful life. You could check for flue gas problems with a hand held combustible gas detector. This condition must be checked and corrected by a licensed plumber ASAP! The other comments about combustibles near the unit, height of the burner above the garage floor, and perhaps flex or copper gas piping penetrating the wall (not visible in the picture) are appropriate reporting for these conditions.
