What should I do if my water heater is leaking from the bottom?
Shut off power and water, then schedule service. A leak at the bottom often means a failing tank, a loose or leaking drain valve, or heavy condensation. Electric: switch the breaker off. Gas: turn the gas control to off or pilot. Close the cold-water shutoff valve on top of the heater. Avoid using hot water until a technician inspects it. Sky Heating provides 24/7 emergency water heater repair and replacement in Portland, Vancouver, and nearby cities.
