I was pointing out your claim that the unit shouldn't be installed in certain areas, which is not true, in fact it's the other way around.
Confused?
Well I'm not, and this thread bores me now.
Dom,
I'm sure you are bored now, that's the best way for you to leave it.
A garage is intended as a place in which one parks vehicles. Vehicles are powered by gasoline (most of them are, anyway), and they have gas tanks in which they store that gasoline.
That instruction says never store gasoline in the same area as that water heater.
Thus, if you put the water heater in the garage, you should never store gasoline in the garage - that is exactly what it says.
So, what do you do ... park you car half in the garage and half out, with the gasoline storage tank out?
