What To Do When Your Water Heater Is Leaking

A leaking water heater may seem like a trivial issue at first, but it can quickly turn into a big problem. Your leaking water heater can cost you a hefty repair bill and damage personal property. In case the leak seems severe, you might even have to call a professional HVAC repair San Diego.

This article will help you understand what to do about a leaking water heater.

Identify the Leak Source.

The first step is to check where water is coming from. First, you need to dry the area and place some paper towels or newspapers around it. Check again in the next few days.

Turn off the Power Supply.

The next thing you must do is switch off the power supply. Locate the circuit breaker and switch it off if you have an electric water heater. If you have a gas one, turn off the on/off switch or dial on the heater’s exterior. Before troubleshooting, please make sure the power supply is cut or can lead to an accident.

Turn off the Water Supply.

There must be two pipes on top of your heater – one will be warm while the other will be cold. The pipe that is cold to touch allows water to enter your heater. Look for a shut-off valve and turn it off to cut down the water supply.

Determine the Exact Location of the Leak.

It is difficult for a non-experience to determine where exactly the leak is. If the leak is visible, it can be easy to do simple repairs on your own. But most of the time, leaks are not so obvious. Depending on the type of problem, you need to get help from any HVAC companies in San Diego.

If you want your work done by the best, get in touch with AiRight Services.

AiRight sent Gustavo Lizarraga to resolve a shower drain issue which required going down into the crawl space under the house.  Gustavo corrected shower and bathtub ABS sewer line piping and replaced an internally corroded piece of vertical cast iron pipe.  Gustavo was polite and efficient, provided detailed pictures of his work and the piece of cast iron pipe he removed.  Gustavo is an excellent plumber.

My AC stopped blowing out cold air. I had another big company come out to take a look they spent 1 hour doing diagnostics and charged me $110 just for looking and wanted to charge me $8100 for the repair and I felt like I was being swindled so I called AiRight cooling for a second opinion and they sent out Jackie who took 15 minutes to figure out the problem and fixed it for $650. Jackie was professional, efficient and most of all honest. I just saved $7500!! Thanks to Jackie from Airight Cooling
