Many of the home electric water heaters, gas heaters have been running for long periods of time, leaks in the bottom, leaks in the interfaces and drippings. Fearing that the leak will not be used, it will be too expensive to change the machine by looking for repairs。
In fact, 90 per cent of water leaks from water heaters do not have to be replaced, mostly because of small problems caused by seals, horn valves and a loose aging of hoses, which can be replaced by simple hands. Today, common leaks and maintenance methods are shared and new players can learn。
Many people make mistakes in the first step, and water heaters continue to use electrically as soon as they leak, or they use the tape around them. In the short term, water seepage in the later stages corrupts walls, circuits, and there is a risk of electricity leakage and bubble security, which is very dangerous。
The real practice is:
The water heater leaks, and self-recovers at these steps:
Shut down the water valves, shut down the electricity and cut the water, first safety, and then clear the leaks。
Check in and out of the water hoses, horn valves, replacement of the aging directly with a low cost operation。
Check the internal gallop interface, and see how the safety valves see the water, mostly with an ageing seal, so that it can be replaced。
Flowers are spilled, water valves are dripped, water is cleaned or valve cores are replaced without a whole new set。
Let's keep these two details in mind
Details 1: the leak in the electro-thermal water dispenses with electricity and is then overhauled, and electrical exposure to leaks is strictly prohibited to prevent electrical exposure。
Details 2: it is recommended that water heaters be replaced in a timely manner for more than eight years to avoid internal corrosive leaks causing safety incidents。
Ordinary people do not need water heaters to change the machine at a very high price. First, they need to find a spot for the leak, so they can seal the fittings and save hundreds of thousands of maintenance fees。
The above is a summary of years of maintenance in which the water heater treats dry, simple and practical, and ordinary people do as they do。
