Sam, is right. That is the reason for having both the water heater and the
house heater off the floor. Part of the regulation code.

Your lower water heater sits on a 18" off the ground in your garage for a
reason... if you have a natural gas leak it will pool towards the floor
(like fog), gasoline vapors are similar, and will pool on the floor first.
I know there's more to it than that, but that's the basic reason for having
the waterheater 18" above the floor.
