Water Heater Leak Remediation

 

Water heater leaks often occur without warning, creating a water damage emergency for homeowners. If you are experiencing a leaking hot water system, it is imperative that you contact a dry out professional as soon as possible to contain the situation and dry out all affected areas quickly to avoid further, more expensive damage. Pooling water and even moisture left to sit in dark places, such as within your ceiling or walls is a haven for mildew and mold growth. Kentucky Disaster Restoration, LLC is a local dry out specialist with a crew on the ready to handle your water heater emergency.

Water Heater Leak and Dry Out by Kentucky Disaster Restoration, LLCWhy Do Water Heaters Burst?

There are three primary causes of water heaters breaking; build-up of sediment, corrosion in the tank and too much pressure. The latter is the biggest culprit we see when we get a call for a burst hot water heater. Well-functioning water heaters have a relief valve that opens up when pressure begins to build in the system, but tanks wear down over the years and components can become faulty. When this occurs, too much pressure builds in the tank, leading to a burst or "explosion". Regular HVAC maintenance should be performed, but if you have an emergency, call the water damage pros at (606) 206-8542 for immediate action.

 

What to Do if Your Hot Water Heater Breaks

  1. Quickly turn off the water supply from the valve located on your water heater to prevent further water damage
  2. Use caution - Your system may be hot. Open the pressure relief valve to release any pressure in the system
  3. Rinse with cold water to quickly get water temperatures down
  4. Call Kentucky Disaster Restoration, LLC to assess the damage and begin the drying out process
