WHY IS MY WATER HEATER LEAKING?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n




The leading causes of water heater leaks include:<\/strong>

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Broken drain valves<\/strong>: These will cause water leaks from the bottom of the tank. They\u2019re easily fixed by replacing the broken drain valve.

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Corrosion: <\/strong>Sediment buildup can cause corrosion, cracking, and holes in the bottom of the tank. When this happens, it\u2019s usually time for water heater replacement.

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Loose water line connections:<\/strong> Normal wear and tear can loosen the inlet or outlet water lines, causing leaks. This problem can usually be fixed by tightening or replacing the loose, worn water lines.

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Broken temperature\/pressure valves:<\/strong> As their name suggests, these valves monitor and regulate the temperature and pressure inside water heaters. When they break, they can cause water leaks from the sides of a water heater tank.

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, various other things can cause water heater leaks\u2014and, sometimes, these leaks are the result of multiple issues.
