it could be your heater core. if so you have to rip out your dash to fix it or you can just bypass the leak by looping it i believe. but if its just regular water such as rain water or when you hit a puddle or whatever find the leak and just put some silicone down, not to much just spread it with your finger or just strip where the leak is down to the metal and slap some jb weld to it unless you can weld witch would be hard because the gauge of the steel is real small.
