AQUA PLUS indirect-fired water heaters — Product Manual

Troubleshooting (continued)

Water on the floor near the tank

1Check for leaks from sources other than the water heater.

•Check for possible water seepage through foundation cracks. Did the water appear after a heavy rain?

2Is the source of water from the T&P relief valve?

•Place a bucket under the discharge piping of the T&P relief valve and monitor it for a day or two. This is a procedure that can be done by the homeowner.

•If the T&P relief valve is the source, refer to page 34 of this guide.

3Loose piping connections?

•Check all connections – boiler connections, domestic connections, etc.

•Check all the boiler connections to the water heater.

•A build-up of corrosion is a sure sign of a leak.

•Excessive force or water hammer can damage the welds where the piping connections enter the water heater tank.

•If water is leaking from around one of the tank connections, a weld may have been broken. Contact your Weil-McLain supplier to determine how to handle the problem.
