🚩 Red tag on your water heater? Here’s what it means. A red tag is more than a sticker. It’s a safety warning.

It means a technician found a condition that could be unsafe and needs attention before the appliance is used again.
✅ Don’t ignore it
✅ Follow the instructions on the tag
✅ Schedule repairs with a qualified professional
