Where Water Heaters Leak in Loma Linda
Water from the T&P valve
A relief valve that drips or runs every day usually means a worn valve or too much pressure in the tank.
Leak at the drain spout
Plastic drain valves wear out. A new brass valve usually ends it.
Water from the tank body
When the steel tank itself leaks, no repair holds. This is the leak that means a new heater.
Water in the pan
The pan is wet, but the cause may be condensation, an AC line or relief discharge.
Element or control valve seep
Gaskets behind an element panel, or the threads of a gas control valve, let water out.
Rust-colored water
Rusty hot water or rust streaks on the tank can mean corrosion inside.
