Hi All!
Couldn't find anything on this, but I suspect that I may have (dead?) algae growing near my equipment due to a leak somewhere in my inground pool plumbing.
I noticed that a very small amount of water is dripping from the side of my water heater when the pump is on from the pressure release valve, and maybe somewhere in the piping that is causing green stuff (i assume is algae) on my concrete landscaping.
It looks like this problem was inherited from the last owner, as the algae was already there prior to me opening my pool in May.

1. What can i use to seal up the heater?
2. What can i do to deal with the algae on the concrete?

Thanks!
