Standard tank models of water heaters are large storage tanks which hold from 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are tremendously insulated to ensure your water will stay piping hot whenever you would like it.
Tank water heaters are usually dependable, however they occasionally have problems. Below are a few commonly occurring issues that affect standard tank style 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 one should check is the fuse box.
If the circuit breaker is not an issue then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater might need replacement. On a gas water heater, the important things to look at are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rust colored hot water could be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this is not treated, corrosion could progress and develop a leak in the tank. Changing out an anode rod is a relatively simple procedure and it may extend the lifetime of your water heater by a few years.
Hot water that is simply discolored, but is not rusty is likely caused from hard water build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.
Hot water which smells like rotten eggs or sulfur likely is caused from bacteria which has amassed in the water heater tank.
A water leak from the base of the tank could be due to a number of problems. It could be related to 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 caused by the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a damaged 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 clogged, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve might be defective, or the thermocouple requires replacement.
Odd sounds from your water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises commonly 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 to worry about, but it's still a good idea to have it inspected.
If you have a recent decrease in hot water pressure, it could be caused by sediment in your pipes or faucets.
