RV Repair: RV Hot Water Tank, hot water tank, atwood water heater


Question
I have 2 little holes in my Hot water tank at the bottom , about the size of a pencil head, is there a permanent patch that I could use ?  Thank You

Answer
Rick, I am guessing but this is probably an Atwood water heater. If so it is made of aluminum and usually when they get old and holes start happening they need replaced. If it is new you can take it to a aluminum welding shop and have them repaired. Chances are if it is old the 2 holes you have now won't be the only ones that are close to happening as well. Thanks, Bill P.S. Check to see if your model has replacement tanks available.
