When water heaters malfunction, they can cause serious burns, explosions and fires. If you or someone you know is dealing with an injury caused by a water heater explosion, or a burn caused by overheated tap water, speak to an experienced personal injury attorney about your options. You may have a legitimate personal injury claim.
Scalding hot water can result in third-degree burns that affect all layers of the skin and even deeper tissues. If a negligent landlord, homeowner or plumber sets your water heater too high, the results can be devastating — especially when drawing a bath. Children and elderly people are most likely to be affected by hot water burns.
