Standard tank models of water heaters are hefty storage tanks which house 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are highly insulated to help make sure your water will continue to be nice and hot whenever you would like it.
Tank water heaters are normally able to be counted on, however they can have issues. Below are some common issues that affect standard tank style gas and electric water heaters.
The most typical cause of no hot water in the water heater is a fuse has tripped. The first thing one should evaluate is the breaker box.
If the fuse box is fine then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater might require replacement. On a gas water heater, the critical things to check 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 eventually cause further deterioration and result in a leak in the tank. Replacing an anode rod is a relatively easy procedure and it often extend the lifetime of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is simply discolored, but is not rusty may be due to scale build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.
Hot water that smells like rotten eggs or sulfur is generally caused from bacteria which has amassed in the water heater.
A water leak from the base of the tank could be from several different 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 may be due to the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a damaged 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 broken, or the thermocouple requires replacement.
Strange sounds from your water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises commonly happen when there is a buildup of sediment in the bottom of the water heater tank. Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. Most noises are nothing to worry about, but it's still a smart 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.
Tankless water heaters are the newest breed of water heater. They are more energy efficient than their tank cousins, are more cost efficient to run and generally have a longer life, but are more expensive up front. They require a lot less space and don't run out of hot water, but in the beginning can need some extra apparatus and re-plumbing or re-routing of gas and water lines.

A tankless water heater uses more gas than a typical heating system, and may need the installation of wider diameter gas piping. You also should verify that your existing water pipes can accommodate a tankless heater.
