Raise HW tank onto strapping?

I'm installing a new HPHW heater in my MA basement. Wondering if I should place some leftover wooden strapping or PVC strips below it to create an air gap and avoid heat loss out the bottom? I know they sell those insulating pads, but it seems like 3-4 strips would work just as well (better?).
