Hello and thank you in advance for any help on this matter. My taco circulator began leaking recently from what I was advised was one of the gaskets. The leak was miniscule, only a few drops of water collected in a container on a daily basis, if any at all. The volume has since increased considerably and i've discovered that the water is not coming from a gasket. I'm attaching a picture to illustrate. The cylindrical body of the circulator has 4 small holes - 1 on each respective side. the hole on the bottom is where the water is coming from. What is causing this and how soon does it need to be taken care of? BTW the heat in the house doesn't seem to be affected at all. Ive circled one of the holes in red below although the leaking hole is on the bottom.

When you take those 4 screws out it is going to leak so you will need to drain it down below that point.
