Standard tank style water heaters are large holding tanks which store between 30 and 80 gallons of water. They are tremendously insulated to help make sure your water will continue to be piping hot any time you want it.
Tank water heaters are quite able to be counted on, however they occasionally have issues. Below are a few frequently occurring issues that affect standard tank style gas and electric water heaters.
The most typical reason there isn't any hot water in the water heater is a fuse has tripped. The first thing you should evaluate is the fuse box.
If the circuit breaker is okay then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater could 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 could be caused by corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this remains unresolved, corrosion could progress and develop a leak in the tank. Replacing an anode rod is a relatively easy process and it could extend the life of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is just discolored, but not rusty could be due to calcification build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.
Hot water which smells like rotten eggs or sulfur generally is caused from bacteria growth in the hot water tank.
A water leak from the base of the tank can be caused by several different issues. It could be from 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 may be caused by the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a malfunctioning 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 could be blocked, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve might be malfunctioning, or the thermocouple needs changing.
Weird noises from your water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises 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 noises are nothing serious, but it's still a smart idea to have it inspected.
If you have a sudden reduction in hot water pressure, it may be caused by calcium build up in your pipes or faucets.
