Standard tank type water heaters are large holding tanks which store up to 80 gallons of water. They are immensely insulated to help make sure your water will remain nice and hot any time you you desire it.
Tank water heaters are generally dependable, though they can have problems. Below are a few commonly occurring problems that affect standard tank style gas and electric water heaters.
The most frequent reason there is no hot water in the water heater is a blown circuit breaker. The initial thing one should check is the fuse box.
If the circuit breaker is okay then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater could need 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 cause further deterioration and develop a leak in the tank. Replacing an anode rod is a relatively simple process and it often extend the life of your water heater by a few years.
Hot water that is only discolored, but is not rusty could be due to scale build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.
Hot water which smells like rotten eggs or sulfur is generally caused by bacteria growth in the water heater.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank could be due to several different problems. 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 above the water heater may be from the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a faulty 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 blocked, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve might be malfunctioning, or the thermocouple requires replacement.
Weird noises from your water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other sounds frequently happen when there is a buildup of sediment in the bottom of the tank. Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. Most noises are nothing serious, but it's still a wise idea to have it checked.
If you have a recent reduction in hot water pressure, it might be caused by sediment in your pipes or faucets.
Tankless water heaters are the newest type of water heater. They are more power efficient than their tank cousins, are more cost efficient to run and tend to have a longer life, but are more expensive up front. They require a lot less space and don't run out of hot water, but upon installation can require some extra equipment and re-plumbing or re-routing of gas and water lines.
