When repairing water leaks in an electric geyser, the technician typically follows these steps:

1. Inspection and Diagnosis:

• Power Off: Ensure the geyser is disconnected from the power supply for safety.
• Check for Visible Leaks: Look for signs of water leaking from any part of the geyser.
• Check Pressure Relief Valve: Inspect if the valve is causing leaks due to excess pressure.
• Check Heating Element and Gasket: Examine the heating element and the gasket for wear, corrosion, or damage.

2. Identifying the Source of the Leak:

• Tank Leak: If the water is leaking from the body of the tank itself, the technician will check for cracks or corrosion.
• Pipe Connections: Inspect the inlet and outlet pipes for leaks at the connection points.
• Temperature and Pressure Valve: Check if the valve is malfunctioning, which could cause leaks.
• Overheating or Rusting of Components: Overheating could cause internal parts to rust, leading to leaks.

3. Dismantling Components:

• Drain the Geyser: The technician will drain the geyser to remove any water before working on it.
• Remove Covers and Panels: Open the casing or panels to access internal components.
• Remove Faulty Parts: Remove damaged components, such as the heating element, thermostat, or valve, to inspect or replace them.

4. Repair/Replace Damaged Parts:

• Seal or Replace Gaskets: If the gasket is the issue, replace it with a new one to prevent leaks at the joints.
• Replace Faulty Pipes or Connectors: Leaking pipes are often replaced or re-tightened.
• Replace Heating Element: If the element is damaged or causing the leak, it will be replaced.
• Repair or Replace the Pressure Relief Valve: A malfunctioning pressure valve will be replaced to prevent further leaks.
• Resealing or Replacing Tank: If the tank itself has cracks, it might need sealing or, in extreme cases, replacement.

5. Reassemble the Geyser:

• Reassemble Components: After replacing or repairing faulty parts, the technician will reassemble the geyser, ensuring all parts are secured properly.
• Check for Proper Sealing: Ensure all connections are sealed tightly to prevent any future leaks.

6. Test the Geyser:

• Turn On Water Supply: Restore the water supply and check for any further leaks around the repaired areas.
• Test the Heating Function: Turn on the geyser to ensure the heating element and thermostat are functioning correctly.
• Check Pressure Relief Valve: Ensure the pressure relief valve is working properly and not leaking.

7. Final Checks and Clean-Up:

• Check for Proper Functioning: Ensure the geyser is heating water as expected and there are no leaks.
• Clean the Area: Clean up any tools, debris, or water from the work area.

By the end of the process, the geyser should be fully repaired, free of leaks, and functioning properly. The technician will also provide a report or advice on any future maintenance to prevent recurring issues.
