Cumbustibles Notice

The Rock Hill Housing Authority values the safety of our tenants. We have noticed an increase in residents storing items on and around the water heaters. Please understand that the water heaters are considered a combustible item. Should the water heater explode, any items stored on it or around it could become a projectile and seriously injure or kill someone. In addition to that, storing items on or around combustibles can result in a failed inspection for safety reasons. The Department of Housing & Urban Development grades housing authorities on this item, which could lead to a decrease in funding should such a funding result in a failed inspection. This notice serves as a friendly reminder to avoid storing any items on or around your water heater. If you currently have any items stored on or near your water heater, please remove them immediately and place them in a safe location away from the water heater. We appreciate your attention to this matter.
