Water Heater Leaking? Emergency Service
A leaking water heater can cause significant property damage. Prompt evaluation and action can prevent costly water damage to your home.
Sources of Water-Heater Leaks
Tank leaks can come from the tank itself (corrosion failure), the temperature and pressure relief valve, inlet/outlet connections, or the drain valve. Tankless leaks may come from the heat exchanger, connections, or condensation lines.
Tank Leak Assessment
If a tank water heater is leaking from the tank body, replacement is typically required. Leaks from connections or valves may be repairable. Our technician will identify the exact source and recommend the appropriate action.
Preventing Water Damage
If safe to do so, shut off the water supply to the water heater and turn off the power or gas supply. Move belongings away from the area. Our technician will assess the situation promptly.
Safety Reminder
If you smell gas, suspect carbon monoxide or believe there is an immediate danger, leave the property and contact emergency services or the appropriate gas emergency authority. Do not remain inside — exit the building immediately and call for help from outside.
