No Hot Water

The most frequent reason there is not any hot water in the water heater is a circuit breaker has tripped. The initial thing you should evaluate is the fuse box.

If the circuit breaker is not an issue then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater could need replacing. On a gas water heater, the critical things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.

Rusty, Dirty, or Discolored Water

Rust colored hot water might be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this is not treated, corrosion will eventually progress and develop a leak in the tank. Changing out an anode rod is a relatively easy job and it may extend the lifetime of your water heater by several years.

Hot water that is just discolored, but is not rusty could be due to calcification build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.

Smelly Hot Water

Hot water that has an odor of rotten eggs or sulfur generally is caused by bacteria growth in the water heater tank.

Water Leaking from the Bottom

A water leak from the base of the tank could be due to a few problems. It could be caused by a temperature and pressure valve, condensation, a leaking gasket, break down of the tank, or draining from the overflow pipe.

Water Leaking from the Top

Water leaking from above the water heater might be due to the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a faulty temperature and pressure valve, or a loose connection.

Pilot Light Issues

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 could be broken, or the thermocouple requires replacement.

Strange Noises

Strange noises from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other sounds commonly occur when there is a buildup of sediment in the bottom of the water heater. Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. Most sounds are nothing to worry about, but it's still a wise idea to have it inspected.

Low Hot Water Pressure

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