We have a new Springdale 294BHSSR and I've always used the water heater on electric. This past weekend we turned on the A/C for a little so I switched it over to gas.
After awhile we smelled something, and thought the stove had been left on, but it wasn't. I went outside and the water heater cover had a lot of black soot on it. I switched the water heater back to electric and the smell inside went away.
Any ideas about what to check ? I haven't actually opened the cover and looked at it when it is firing (we were packing up to leave).
Thanks for any info you can give me...
