Safety first. If you smell gas near a water heater, leave the home and call your gas utility or 911 from outside. Stay out of standing water if outlets or cords may be under it.

What to do right now

  1. Close the main water valve or the fixture's local shutoff.
  2. Turn off the water heater if the main will stay closed for long.
  3. Open a faucet at the lowest point of the home to drain the lines.
  4. Take photos of any damage before cleanup, in case you file an insurance claim.

What Denver homeowners should know

Denver mixes early 1900s bungalows and brick homes with newer townhomes, and the age of a house changes what tends to fail.

Older Denver homes may still have aging galvanized or lead service lines. Denver Water runs a lead reduction program, so it is worth asking about your line if the repair reaches the street connection.
