I’m not sure where or what it’s leaking from. There was a substantial amount of water flowing.

If that’s the cost of a new one I guess I’m out of luck for a good while.

Could just be a valve too. Those are much cheaper. Had one go years ago. A stream was pissing out the side from the relief pipe. Cost about $200 to fix.

I can only hope that it’s lucky. Been experiencing like a water hammer noise for awhile and maybe the pipe at the back leading into the water unit finally burst.

Or unlucky if the whole unit needs to be replaced
