No Hot Water

The most typical cause of no hot water in the water heater is a blown fuse. The first thing one should check is the breaker box.

If the fuse box is fine then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater might need replacement. On a gas water heater, the important things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.

Rusty, Dirty, or Discolored Water

Rusty hot water could be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If left unresolved, corrosion will eventually cause further deterioration and result in a leak in the tank. Replacing an anode rod is a relatively simple job and it could extend the life of your water heater by a few years.

Hot water that is just discolored, but is not rusty might be caused from calcification build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.

Smelly Hot Water

Hot water that smells like rotten eggs or sulfur generally is caused from bacteria growth in the water heater.

Water Leaking from the Bottom

Water Leaking from the Top

Water leaking from the top of the water heater may be caused by the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a damaged temperature and pressure valve, or a loose connection.

Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. The majority of noises are nothing to worry about, but it's still a wise idea to have it checked.
