Standard tank style water heaters are big holding tanks which hold between 30 and 80 gallons of water. They are greatly insulated to ensure your water will continue to be nice and hot any time you want it.
Tank water heaters are normally able to be counted on, though they occasionally have issues. Below are some commonly occurring problems that affect standard tank style gas and electric water heaters.
The most common reason there is no hot water in the water heater is a blown circuit breaker. The first thing you should check is the breaker box.
If the fuse box is not a problem then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater may require replacement. On a gas water heater, the critical things to look at are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rusty hot water could be caused by corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If left unresolved, corrosion can progress and develop a leak in the water tank. Changing out an anode rod is a fairly easy process and it may extend the lifetime of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is only discolored, but not rusty is likely due to scale build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.
Hot water which has an odor of rotten eggs or sulfur is likely caused from bacteria which has amassed inside the hot water tank.
A water leak from the base of the tank might be due to a few different problems. It could be related to a temperature and pressure valve, condensation, a leaking gasket, deterioration of the tank, or draining from the overflow pipe.
Water leaking from above the water heater might be from the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a malfunctioning temperature and pressure valve, or a loose connection.
There are several reasons why a pilot will not light or stay lit. The pilot light tube could be clogged, there may be air in the gas line, the gas valve could be malfunctioning, or the thermocouple needs replacing.
Strange noises from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises 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. The majority of sounds are nothing to worry about, but it's still a good idea to have it checked.
If you have a recent decrease in hot water pressure, it might be caused by sediment in your pipes or faucets.
