The #1 Cause of Water Heater Floods

69% of all water heater failures result from a slow leak or a sudden burst, according to a study by the Insurance Institute for Business & Home Safety (IBHS). And these failures cost an average of $4,444 per incident after the deductible was paid.

So, if you have a water heater in your home, odds are that it will eventually leak or burst, leaving you with some serious water damage.

But why? What causes a water heater to spring a leak? Well, the #1 cause is ignoring needed maintenance

Since water heaters are out of sight and out of mind for most homeowners, they forget about them and don’t take care of the maintenance they need. In many cases, this leads to a leak or water heater burst.
