Standard tank style water heaters are big storage tanks which store from 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are highly insulated to ensure your water will stay nice and hot any time you want it.
Tank water heaters are quite able to be counted on, though they occasionally have problems. Below are a few frequently occurring issues that affect standard tank type gas and electric water heaters.
The most common 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 fuse box is fine then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater may require replacement. On a gas water heater, the key things to look at are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rust colored hot water might be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this remains untreated, corrosion could eventually cause further deterioration and develop a leak in the tank. Replacing an anode rod is a fairly uncomplicated process and it could extend the lifetime of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is simply discolored, but is not rusty could be caused from hard water build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.
Hot water which has an odor of rotten eggs or sulfur is generally caused by bacteria build up in the hot water tank.
A water leak from the base of the tank could be caused by a few different problems. It could be from a temperature and pressure valve, condensation, a leaking gasket, break down of the tank, or draining from the overflow pipe.
Water leaking from above 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 several reasons why a pilot will not light or stay lit. The pilot light tube may be blocked, there may be air in the gas line, the gas valve may be defective, or the thermocouple requires replacing.
Strange sounds from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises commonly occur when there is a buildup of sediment in the bottom of the tank. Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. The majority of noises are benign, but it's still a good idea to have it checked.
If you have a recent reduction in hot water pressure, it could be caused by calcium deposits in your pipes or faucets.
Tankless water heaters are the most recent breed of water heater. They are more power efficient than their tank cousins, are more economical to run and tend to have a longer life, but are more expensive initially. They demand a lot less space and never run out of hot water, but upon installation can require some extra accessories and re-plumbing or re-routing of gas and water lines.

A tankless water heater utilizes more gas than a common heating system, and may need the installation of wider diameter gas pipes. You will also need to make sure that your existing water pipes can support a tankless heater.
One of the most common problems in tankless water heaters is no hot water. This may be related to a variety of things including a gas, electricity, or water supply problem, ignition failure, an error code in the machine, a blocked pipe, or frozen pipe.
Sediment build up happens a lot and can cause damage to your water heater. Having a water softener put in could slow the build up. Another possible solution is to have your water heater flushed twice a year with a descaling cleaner.
Most tankless water heaters are equipped with a screen which displays an error code when there is an issue. There are a wide range of reasons why an error code may display.
