Standard tank models of water heaters are big holding tanks which hold up to 80 gallons of water. They are greatly insulated to ensure your water will continue to be nice and hot any time you would like it.
Tank water heaters are usually dependable, though they occasionally have problems. Below are some commonly occurring issues that affect standard tank style gas and electric water heaters.
The most typical reason there is not any hot water in the water heater is a blown fuse. The first thing one should evaluate is the breaker box.
If the circuit breaker is fine then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater might require replacement. On a gas water heater, the key things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rust colored hot water might be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If left unresolved, corrosion could progress and result in a leak in the water tank. Replacing an anode rod is a relatively simple process and it could extend the lifetime of your water heater by a few years.
Hot water that is only discolored, but isn't rusty might be caused by scale build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.
Hot water that has an odor of rotten eggs or sulfur generally is caused from bacteria build up in the water heater.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank might be from 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 may be caused by the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a damaged 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 may be clogged, there may be air in the gas line, the gas valve might be broken, or the thermocouple needs replacing.
Strange noises from your water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other sounds frequently take place when there is a buildup of sediment in the lower portion of the tank. Hissing could be a sign that there is a leak or condensation. Most sounds are benign, but it's still a good idea to have it inspected.
If you have a recent reduction in hot water pressure, it may be caused by calcium deposits in your pipes or faucets.
Tankless water heaters are the most recent breed of water heater. They are more power efficient than their tank cousins, are more cost efficient to run and tend to last longer, but are more expensive to purchase. They require a lot less space and never run out of hot water, but at the start can need some extra apparatus and re-plumbing or re-routing of gas and water lines.
