Standard tank type water heaters are hefty holding tanks which house between 30 and 80 gallons of water. They are highly insulated to help make sure your water will remain piping hot whenever you would like it.
Tank water heaters are normally able to be counted on, however they occasionally have issues. Below are some 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 blown fuse. The initial thing one 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 require replacement. On a gas water heater, the critical things to look at are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rusty hot water might be caused by corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this is not treated, corrosion can progress and result in a leak in the tank. Changing out an anode rod is a fairly easy procedure and it may extend the life of your water heater by a few years.
Hot water that is simply discolored, but is not rusty is likely caused from scale build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.
Hot water that smells like rotten eggs or sulfur likely is caused from bacteria build up inside the hot water tank.
A water leak from the base of the tank can be due to a few problems. It could be from a temperature and pressure valve, condensation, a leaking gasket, deterioration of the tank, or draining from the overflow pipe.
Water leaking from the top of the water heater might 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 may be blocked, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve could be broken, 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 lower portion of the water heater. Hissing could be a sign that there is a leak or condensation. Most noises are benign, but it's still a wise idea to have it inspected.
If you have a sudden reduction in hot water pressure, it may be caused by calcium build up in your pipes or faucets.
