Corrosion protection

In a few regions, the water utility company supplies corrosive domestic water, which can result in corrosion damage even if high-

quality stainless steel is used. Ask your water utility whether using hot water storage tanks made from stainless steel can result

in corrosion problems in your area.

Suitable water treatment may be required.
