When your house experiences flood, fire, earthquake, or other physical damage; refrain from using the water heater. We are sorry to hear that you have to go through this. We can only imagine how difficult this has been. However, once it is safe to be in your home you should turn off the circuit breaker to the water heater first.
Do not hesitate to contact us so we can help determine if it is safe to continue to operate your water heater.
