Folks if you have condo in upper unit with water heater please check its condition, make sure it's not rusty and/or has potential for leaking. Replacing water heater is cheap but if you owned condo in upper stair and water heater is leaking, your damage cost can be substantial because it may flood all the way down the unit on the first floor. If you are not in upper unit then the damage is more contained.

@Carlos Ptriawan

I learned this the hard way.  The worst part for me was that these were in the attics of one-floor 4plexes.  Why not put them on the ground?!?!?!  So frustrating.

I hope you didn't just learn this the hard way!
