Walk the room barefoot. A warm stripe or spot, especially near the kitchen or bath, points at a hot line.
A wet edge along the wall
Carpet that stays damp at the tack strip, or pad that smells musty, often sits over a slow leak.
Cracked or lifting tile
Water washing soil out from under a slab can let it settle, and hard flooring shows it first.

It fires again and again because the hot water it makes is escaping.
Hot water running short
Showers go lukewarm sooner than they used to.
A musty smell indoors
Mildew odour near floors or closets with no obvious wet spot.
