Common Causes of Water Tank Leaking

Leaking Water Heater Services Indianapolis

A broken or dying pressure relief valve, the most common cause.

Loose pipe connections, especially if the water is leaking from the top.

The temperature and pressure relief valve were incorrectly installed.

Cracks in the water heater tank.

A damaged drain valve that needs to be replaced.

For some of these issues, we can simply repair your hot water heater so it can continue working for you. If there are cracks in the tank, you will need to get it replaced. Also, if your water heater is over 10 years old or if it needs frequent repairs, we suggest having a new water heater professionally installed. We offer tankless, electric, and gas water heater installations.
