What Happens When A Water Heater Bursts?

Burst water heaters, like burst pipes, can cause thousands of dollars in damage. According to a study by the Insurance Institute for Business and Home Safety, burst water heaters are one of the top five causes of residential water damage. A lot of the damage caused by burst water heaters is due to the fact that the tank will constantly try to refill itself after it bursts, causing large amounts of water to flood into a home.
