Leaking Hot Water Heater: from under top, down the sides

[sellersm]

Gas water heater just started leaking, there are about 3 places: under the top piece, in various places, water runs down the side from under the top piece (that has screws going into it).

You are going to need a new one.

Damn you are about a month late, last month new regulations changed and water heaters are more efficient... Meaning they will cost more

You might be able to find some old stock, I picked one up because i knew prices would be more. I don't even need one yet.

If you hurry you might still get the old style if the box stores still have some stock left. ^ I also picked up one a month ago due to costs and dimension changes.

Bummer,
Mine did that at the end of Febuary. At least it he'd out until the night we got back from an out of town week long trip.

Any leads on a good deal on a new gas water heater?

I bought two older stock water heaters yesterday from HD, the guy said the new and improved ones are running about $70-80 more.

Glad to see I'm not the only person with one sitting in the box until the old one craps out. I told my wife I wasn't crazy.

I showed my wife this thread she rolled her eyes. I went back downstairs where I'm typing this message with my guns

Started leaking about a week ago, again. Hoping it lasts til July, so I will actually have time/funds to replace it.
