No Hot Water

The most common reason there is no hot water in the water heater is a fuse has tripped. The first thing one should check is the breaker box.

If the circuit breaker is okay then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater could need replacing. On a gas water heater, the important things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.

Rusty, Dirty, or Discolored Water

Rusty hot water might be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this remains untreated, corrosion could cause further deterioration and develop a leak in the tank. Changing out an anode rod is a fairly simple procedure and it often extend the lifetime of your water heater by several years.

Hot water that is just discolored, but not rusty is likely 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 is usually caused by bacteria build up in the water heater tank.

Water Leaking from the Bottom

A water leak from the base of the tank can be from a number of issues. It could be related to 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 could be from the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a faulty 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 could be clogged, there may be air in the gas line, the gas valve could be defective, or the thermocouple needs replacement.

Strange Noises

Strange sounds from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises frequently take place when there is a buildup of sediment in the lower portion of the water heater. Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. Most sounds are nothing serious, but it's still a wise idea to have it checked.

Low Hot Water Pressure

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