Standard tank style water heaters are hefty holding tanks which hold between 30 and 80 gallons of water. They are tremendously insulated to help make sure your water will stay nice and hot any time you would like it.
Tank water heaters are normally dependable, however they sometimes have problems. Below are some frequently occurring issues that affect standard tank type gas and electric water heaters.
The most typical reason there is no hot water in the water heater is a blown fuse. The initial thing you should evaluate is the breaker box.
If the circuit breaker is not a problem then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater could need replacement. On a gas water heater, the key things to check 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 could eventually cause further deterioration and result in a leak in the tank. Replacing an anode rod is a relatively simple 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 could be due to scale 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 build up inside the hot water tank.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank could be due to several different problems. 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 could be caused by 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 might be blocked, there may be air in the gas line, the gas valve could be defective, or the thermocouple needs replacing.
Weird noises from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other sounds frequently take place when there is a buildup of sediment in the lower portion of the water heater tank. Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. Most sounds are nothing serious, but it's still a good idea to have it inspected.
If you experience a sudden drop in hot water pressure, it may be caused by calcium deposits in your pipes or faucets.
