If you have a water heater leaking from the bottom of your hot water heater, then it needs to be replaced. If the tank itself is severely corroded or damaged, replacement may be the best option to prevent further leaks and water damage.
First, turn off the power or gas supply to the heater and shut off the water supply. Then, check the source of the leak. If it's coming from a valve or fitting, you may be able to tighten or replace it yourself. However, if the tank itself is leaking, it's best to contact a professional plumber to evaluate the situation and recommend the appropriate repairs or replacement.
Solar hot water systems tend to be among the most economical options over the long term, as they rely on free energy from the sun to heat water. If you’re after solar hot water heaters, we service and install all types.
