Standard tank type water heaters are big holding tanks which store 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are tremendously insulated to help make sure your water will stay nice and hot any time you would like it.
Tank water heaters are generally dependable, though they occasionally have problems. Below are some frequently occurring problems that affect standard tank type gas and electric water heaters.
The most frequent reason there is no hot water in the water heater is a circuit breaker has tripped. The initial thing one should evaluate is the breaker box.
If the fuse box is okay then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater might need replacing. On a gas water heater, the important things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rusty hot water can be caused by corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this remains untreated, corrosion could eventually cause further deterioration and develop a leak in the tank. Replacing an anode rod is a fairly easy procedure and it often extend the life of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is simply discolored, but not rusty is likely caused by hard water build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.
Hot water that has an odor of rotten eggs or sulfur likely is caused from bacteria build up inside the hot water tank.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank could be caused by 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 could 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 may be clogged, there may be air in the gas line, the gas valve could be broken, or the thermocouple needs replacement.
Strange noises from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises commonly happen when there is a buildup of sediment in the bottom of the water heater. Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. The majority of sounds are benign, but it's still a good idea to have it checked.
If you experience a sudden decrease in hot water pressure, it may be caused by sediment in your pipes or faucets.
Tankless water heaters are the most recent type of water heater. They are more power efficient than their tank cousins, are more cost efficient to run and generally have a longer lifespan, but are more costly to purchase. They demand much less less space and won't run out of hot water, but initially can need some extra equipment and re-plumbing or re-routing of gas and water lines.
