Where Water Heaters Leak in Seaside
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
The drain valve at the bottom is one of the most common leaks, and one of the easiest to fix.
Rust at the bottom seam
When the steel tank itself leaks, no repair holds. This is the leak that means a new heater.
Tank seam or bottom leaking
Water from the steel tank itself, the one leak that means replacement.
Wet connections on top
Hot and cold connectors and nipples corrode or loosen, and the water runs down the side of the tank.
Drain valve weeping
The valve at the bottom drips from the spout or around its threads.
