check to see if the unions are tight enough around the housing they may not be tight enough cross threaded or the gasket is cracked or pinched.

Lots of places water can leak at the heater:

1. Check union gaskets (replace)
2. Pressure Switch (replace)
3. Heater studs (replace heater)
4. Heater housing (replace heater housing)

Most of the the time it is either the studs or pressure switch.
