FVIR is a design standard for gas water heaters that keeps flammable vapors near the floor from igniting outside the combustion chamber.
Every modern atmospheric gas water heater sold in the U.S. is built to this standard. The sealed chamber and flame arrestor mean the burner area should never be opened or bypassed, and debris around the base should be kept clear.
