No Hot Water

The most typical reason there is not any hot water in the water heater is a circuit breaker has tripped. The first thing you should check is the fuse box.

If the fuse box is okay then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater could be faulty. On a gas water heater, the key things to look at are the pilot and the gas control valve.

Rusty, Dirty, or Discolored Water

Rust colored hot water can be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this remains untreated, corrosion could progress and develop a leak in the water tank. Changing out an anode rod is a fairly uncomplicated procedure and it could extend the lifetime of your water heater by several years.

Hot water that is just discolored, but is not rusty could be caused by hard water build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.

Smelly Hot Water

Hot water that smells like rotten eggs or sulfur likely is caused from bacteria growth inside the water heater.

Water Leaking from the Bottom

A water leak from the base of the tank could be caused by several different issues. It could be caused by a temperature and pressure valve, condensation, a leaking gasket, corrosion of the tank, or draining from the overflow pipe.

Water Leaking from the Top

Water leaking from the top of the water heater may be due to the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a damaged temperature and pressure valve, or a loose connection.

Pilot Light Problems

There are a few reasons why a pilot will not light or stay lit. The pilot light tube might be blocked, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve may be malfunctioning, or the thermocouple requires replacing.

Strange Noises

Odd sounds from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other sounds frequently happen when there is a buildup of sediment in the bottom of the water heater tank. Hissing could be a sign that there is a leak or condensation. Most noises are nothing serious, but it's still a good idea to have it inspected.

Low Hot Water Pressure

If you experience a recent drop in hot water pressure, it might be caused by calcium deposits in your pipes or faucets.
