Common Causes of Water Heater Leaks at Your Property in Billings and Butte, MT 

Water heater leaks can occur for a variety of reasons, triggering the need for cleanup services. Common causes include:

• A faulty or loose drain valve that permits water to escape from the tank.
• High water pressure readings within the pipes cause leaks.

• A malfunctioning pressure relief valve that releases pressure & causes leaks.
• Sediment accumulation at the bottom of the tank.
• Extremely high water temperature settings that weaken the tank and pipes.

Locating a Water Heater Leak is Essential

Many times, a leaky water heater will go undetected for an extended stretch because the unit is located in an out-of-the-way area or the leak is not visible until pools of water become visible under the appliance. To fix a leak, you first must find it. Our crews excel at finding and stopping water heater leaks.

In many situations, your water heater leaks because there is too much pressure going through the system. When pressure leaks happen, the water will look for any small breach to enter and will cease when the pressure is reduced.  It is very difficult to detect a leak, but Dayspring Restoration can help. We provide a 24/7 emergency response for water damage and flood damage.
