Go outside and brush liquid soap on all your connections from the tank to the house, If you have a leak you will see bubbles appear.

Please be aware that dish soap contains chlorides and or chlorine and will corrode and or damage fittings and pipes. If you chose to use them wash the soap off after testing.
