1 Under normal conditions the hot tub GFCI circuit breakers should should be checked using the TEST Button, and then reset normally. 2  Typically a hot tub GFI Breaker will last for several years under ideal conditions. I filled the tub with fresh water and hit the breaker. 2  You can hear electrical noise in breaker like it is shorting, then breaker kicks off. 3  Even if there was a short in the spa, the breaker should just kickoff without the noise. 4  It sounds like two wires arcing, there is no smell and the breaker is not melted.
When water begins to leak from the bottom of a water heater, it is time to replace it. Leaking is a sign of corroding and wear within the tank. Most hot water heaters last for at least 10 years, and some will stay in good shape for up to 20 years. Replace a water heat as soon as leaking is noticed to avoid flooding and additional clean up.
