Where Water Heaters Leak in Yucaipa
Dripping relief 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
Rust and water at the seam or base mean the tank has corroded through. That one gets replaced.
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.
