Re: Leaking Atwood water heater by Jo Bloedel
Post New Message Wanted to post my findings. I finally bit the bullet and removed the tank for examination. It was leaking - a pin size hole on the side of the tank along the seam. It's odd, it looks at though the tank has previously been repaired, the seam had been marked with a blue line and there is evidence of being sanded and welded. I am assuming this took place at the factory, but now three years later, what's a girl to do? Anyway, I sanded and repaired with JB Weld for a temporary fix until I can get home and have the tank replaced. I appreciate the information everyone supplied, Thx so much.
