Water Heater Corrosion Warning Sign
As water heaters age, small leaks can start around the connections. When water slowly leaks out, the minerals and sediment in the water build up around the pipe, creating heavy scale and corrosion like you see in this photo.
Over time, this buildup can damage pipes, cause bigger leaks, and lead to water heater failure.
If you notice corrosion, mineral buildup, or rust around your water heater, it’s best to have it inspected before it turns into a costly plumbing emergency.
