What should I do if my water heater is leaking from the bottom?
If water is leaking from the bottom of your water heater, shut off the cold-water valve and power (gas to “pilot” or electric at the breaker), then call us. Bottom leaks often indicate internal tank corrosion or a failed drain valve. Our licensed technicians in Peru, IN will evaluate the unit, advise repair vs. replacement, and can install brand-name systems. We also provide maintenance that removes sediment and tests the temperature‑pressure relief valve. 24/7 emergency help is available.
