Who knows the brands , models and years of the heaters with copper liners? People just want to know!
Keep in mind that the leak could be from a corroded tank. If it turns into a major break you will have a very large amount of water to deal with. I would get it replaced ASAP.
I hope those people aren't the same people who have been stealing copper downspouts from churches. The other people just want to know about that.
I'm posting an answer here just so I can find this question again. Interesting...
