Standard tank style water heaters are large storage tanks which hold 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are immensely insulated to ensure your water will stay nice and hot whenever you would like it.
Tank water heaters are usually dependable, however they sometimes have problems. These are some commonly occurring issues that affect standard tank style gas and electric water heaters.
The most common reason there is no hot water in the water heater is a blown circuit breaker. The first thing one should check is the fuse box.

Rusty hot water might be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this remains unresolved, corrosion will eventually cause further deterioration and result in a leak in the water tank.

A water leak from the base of the tank could be caused by several different issues. 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 the top of the water heater could be caused by 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 might be clogged, there may be air in the gas line, the gas valve could be broken, or the thermocouple needs replacement.
Weird sounds from your water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises frequently take place when there is a buildup of sediment in the bottom of the water heater.

If you experience a recent drop in hot water pressure, it may be caused by calcium build up in your pipes or faucets.
