Leak from Indirect?

Check the sensor well connection. I've had one leaker that didn't show up until it was heated. Pretty hard to get condensation from that style, being tank-in-tank.

Leak from new Indirect?

Guys, I need help.

I have installed new indirect water heater. It was under the pressure over one week. The boiler wasn't completed at that time, but was also under pressure. When I started the boiler I got wet floor under indirect water heater I've checked all the connections and could not find the leak. It looks as if it is coming from the bottom of tank. Could it be some condensation? I am running out of ideas, please help.

All the best,
Walter

One way to find out....

If you are certain of your connections, isolate the indirect on both inlet and outlet. Let the tank cool to ambient or force it to ambient to minimize T/P relationships.

Put a gauge on the drain valve and see what the pressure does overnight. (Should I say Overknight? Nah. Too easy.)

No change or within range of any temperature change? Condensation. Definite drop in pressure? Houston, we have a problem. I would still check the connections before further steps.
