" It is pretty sad that the professionals were unable to find the leak"

Almost scary!
Hope you got everything straightened out.

I am having some problems with the radiators in my house and I wonder if it is the same thing. But that is just me, I am totally lost about these technological and around the house things so I probably will get a contractor to take a look.

Whenever a water heater is installed the connections should have been tested by the installer

I would say 50% of the time there is a leak normally on the main flame tubing (supply to the burner) or the standing pilot tube which is constantly energized

Kathy. I have the exact same issue with a Bradford White gass water heater. The leak is coming from the exact same place! Can you tell me which model of UEI sniffer you bought? Was replacing the control pricey? I too have had professionals out to diagnos the problem....no problem could be found! Really???? No problem?... Follow your nose guys.... Hope to hear from you soon. Guess I have to take the same route you did.
