Standard tank style water heaters are big storage tanks which contain up to 80 gallons of water. They are greatly insulated to help make sure your water will continue to be piping hot any time you want it.
Tank water heaters are usually able to be counted on, however they sometimes have problems. Below are some common problems that affect standard tank type gas and electric water heaters.
The most frequent cause of no hot water in the water heater is a circuit breaker has tripped. The first thing you should evaluate is the fuse box.
If the circuit breaker is okay then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater could be faulty. On a gas water heater, the important things to check 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 left untreated, corrosion could progress and develop a leak in the tank. Changing out an anode rod is a fairly uncomplicated procedure and it could extend the life of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is just discolored, but is not rusty could be caused by scale build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.
Hot water that smells like rotten eggs or sulfur is generally caused by bacteria growth in the hot water tank.
A water leak from the base of the tank can be from a few different 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 the top of the water heater might be due to the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a malfunctioning temperature and pressure valve, or a loose connection.
There are a few 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 may be broken, or the thermocouple requires replacing.
Weird noises from your hot 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 tank. Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. The majority of sounds are nothing serious, but it's still a smart idea to have it checked.
If you have a recent drop in hot water pressure, it could be caused by sediment in your pipes or faucets.
