Fast, Careful Help for Naples Property Owners
A failed water heater can release 40 to 80 gallons or more, and keep refilling until the supply is shut off. In Naples, water heaters often sit in garages, utility closets or attics, so leaks can reach living areas and ceilings.
What To Do When a Water Heater Leaks
- Turn off the cold water supply valve at the top of the heater.
- Turn off the power (electric) or set gas to pilot/off.
- Keep away from the tank if water is hot.
- Call a plumber for the heater and call us for the water damage.
