Standard tank style water heaters are big holding tanks which hold up to 80 gallons of water. They are immensely insulated to ensure your water will continue to be nice and hot whenever you want it.
Tank water heaters are generally able to be counted on, though they can have problems. Below are a few common problems that affect standard tank type gas and electric water heaters.
The most typical cause of no hot water in the water heater is a circuit breaker has tripped. The initial thing you should check is the fuse box.
If the fuse box is fine then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater may be faulty. 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 this remains untreated, corrosion can cause further deterioration and develop a leak in the water tank. Changing out an anode rod is a relatively easy job and it may extend the lifetime of your water heater by a few years.
Hot water that is only discolored, but is not rusty might be due to hard water build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.
Hot water that smells like rotten eggs or sulfur likely is caused by bacteria which has amassed inside the water heater.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank could be from 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 the top of the water heater could be from the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a faulty temperature and pressure valve, or a loose connection.
There are a few reasons why a pilot will not light or stay lit. The pilot light tube might be clogged, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve may be broken, or the thermocouple needs replacing.
Strange sounds from your 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. Most sounds are nothing serious, but it's still a wise idea to have it inspected.
If you have a sudden decrease in hot water pressure, it might be caused by calcium build up in your pipes or faucets.
Tankless water heaters are the newest type of water heater. They are more power efficient than their tank counterparts, cost less to run and generally have a longer life, but are more costly to purchase. They demand tremendously less space and don't run out of hot water, but upon installation can require some extra attachments and re-plumbing or re-routing of gas and water lines.

A tankless water heater uses more gas than a common heating system, and may require the installation of larger gas lines. You will also need to make sure that your current water pipes can accommodate a tankless heater.

Sediment build up happens frequently and can cause damage to your water heater. Installing a water softener could slow the build up. An additional solution is to have your water heater flushed every six months with a descaling cleaner.
Most tankless water heaters are equipped with a screen that displays an error code when there is an issue. There are a wide range of reasons why an error code may display.
