If your water heater leaks or ruptures and causes serious water damages in your home or business, you have every right to notify your homeowner’s insurance company. One of the most common reasons for a water heater to leak is a loose drain valve. The drain valve will slowly leak water if it becomes loose and this can cause an unexpected water damage in your home. Depending upon the policies of your homeowner’s insurance provider, most water heater leaks, supply line leaks, broken pipe leaks, appliance overflow leaks are usually covered by your insurance carrier. However, many insurance companies may pay for the damages caused from the leaking water heater not the actual cause of the damage, which might be your water heater. With any water damage claim it is always the responsibility of the property owner to stop the cause of the leak, even if its a temporary fix.
