What should I do if my water heater is leaking from the bottom?

Shut off power or gas, close the cold-water valve, and call us—bottom leaks usually mean the tank or drain valve needs service or replacement. We provide water-heater help in Appleton and nearby areas. We service gas, electric, and tankless units, and can often complete replacements same day. All repairs and installations include a 2-year parts and labor warranty. $250 off water heater installation promotions may apply.

Quick steps:

  • Turn off the breaker (electric) or set gas to “pilot.”
  • Close the cold-water shutoff valve.
  • Attach a hose to the drain and direct to a floor drain.
  • Call for service.
