Can someone please help. My hot water heater is leaking and i need to find the water intake to turn it off if possible until i can either call a plummer or replace it. I have a kenmore economizer 5 model# 333130 40gal
There should be a valve on the cold water inlet piping just above the water heater. I have seen a few (very few thank goodness) water heaters in which no valve was installed at the water heater and the only way to stop the water was to turn it off at the main.
