Standard tank type water heaters are large storage tanks which contain 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are highly insulated to ensure your water will stay piping hot any time you you desire it.
Tank water heaters are generally able to be counted on, however they sometimes have issues. Below are some frequently occurring problems that affect standard tank style gas and electric water heaters.
The most common cause of no hot water in the water heater is a blown circuit breaker. The first thing you should evaluate is the fuse box.
If the circuit breaker is fine then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater might require replacement. On a gas water heater, the key things to look at 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 is not treated, corrosion will eventually cause further deterioration and result in a leak in the water tank. Replacing an anode rod is a relatively easy job and it could extend the life of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is only discolored, but is not rusty might be caused from calcification build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.
Hot water that smells like rotten eggs or sulfur is generally caused by bacteria build up in the hot water tank.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank can be due to a number of issues. It could be caused by 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 might be caused by 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 might be clogged, there may be air in the gas line, the gas valve could be defective, or the thermocouple requires changing.
Strange noises from your water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises frequently occur when there is a buildup of sediment in the bottom of the water heater. Hissing could be a sign that there is a leak or condensation. The majority of sounds are nothing serious, but it's still a good idea to have it checked.
If you have a sudden reduction in hot water pressure, it may be caused by calcium build up in your pipes or faucets.
