This could indicate a leak, either from the tank or the connections at the top. If the tank is leaking, it will need to be replaced. However, if it’s just the connections, it’s usually a simple and inexpensive fix.

This is the temperature and pressure relief valve drain line. Dripping usually signals that the temperature or pressure is or was too high. It’s best to have a qualified plumber inspect this as it could be a serious safety issue.

Noises like boiling or percolating often mean sediment has built up on the bottom of the tank. This sediment can cause premature tank failure. Regular maintenance can prevent this issue.

Traditional tank-type water heaters typically last around 7-8 years. If yours is older, it may be time to consider a replacement. Tankless models generally last up to 20 years, but it’s essential to monitor their condition as they age.
