Standard tank style water heaters are hefty storage tanks which contain from 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are greatly insulated to help make sure your water will stay piping hot whenever you you desire it.
Tank water heaters are quite able to be counted on, however they occasionally have problems. Below are a few frequently occurring problems that affect standard tank type gas and electric water heaters.
The most common cause of no hot water in the water heater is a circuit breaker has tripped. The initial thing you should evaluate is the fuse box.
If the fuse box is okay then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater may be faulty. On a gas water heater, the critical things to look at are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rusty hot water might be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If left unresolved, corrosion can progress and result in a leak in the water tank. Replacing an anode rod is a fairly simple procedure and it could extend the life of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is simply discolored, but isn't rusty might 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 by bacteria which has amassed inside the hot water tank.
A water leak from the base of the tank might be from a few different problems. It could be related to 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 may be from 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 could be clogged, there may be air in the gas line, the gas valve may be malfunctioning, or the thermocouple requires changing.
Odd sounds from your water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises commonly occur when there is a buildup of sediment in the bottom of the water heater tank. Hissing could be a sign that there is a leak or condensation. Most noises are benign, but it's still a good idea to have it checked.
If you experience a recent decrease in hot water pressure, it might be caused by sediment in your pipes or faucets.
