maybe a leak
the other day I was fixing drywall near my water meter and noticed the red triangle leak indicator slightly moving when the water heater clicks on. I checked it a few more times with all water in the house turned off and sure enough a little water flows when the heater goes on. There doesn't seem to be any water leaking from the 40 gal gas unit. Is this normal??

maybe a leak
If you have an expansion tank near your water heater, the heated water may be going into it, allowing a little fresh cold water to flow into the heater tank.
