Rubber grommet for water heater
Hi, our inspector said that the rubber grommet’s condition for the water heater is a safety issue and needs repair/ replacement. Can anyone share how this should look like repaired and if this is a DYI project or something we need the dealer to do? Thanks in advance!

Use Black SikaFlex 291 and reseal the gasket.
This seal being bad can cause dangerous CO gas to leak back inside the trailer.
