No Hot Water

The most typical reason there is no hot water in the water heater is a fuse has tripped. The first thing one should evaluate is the fuse box.

If the circuit breaker is not a problem then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater might require replacement. On a gas water heater, the key things to look at are the pilot and the gas control valve.

Rusty, Dirty, or Discolored Water

Rust colored hot water might be caused by corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this is not treated, corrosion could cause further deterioration and result in a leak in the tank. Replacing an anode rod is a fairly simple process and it often extend the life of your water heater by several years.

Hot water that is only discolored, but is not rusty may be due to calcification build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.

Smelly Hot Water

Hot water which has an odor of rotten eggs or sulfur likely is caused by bacteria build up in the water heater tank.

Water Leaking from the Bottom

A water leak from the base of the tank could be caused by a few 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 the Top

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.

Pilot Light Issues

There are several reasons why a pilot will not light or stay lit. The pilot light tube could be clogged, there may be air in the gas line, the gas valve could be broken, or the thermocouple needs replacement.

Strange Sounds

Strange sounds from your water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises commonly take place when there is a buildup of sediment in the lower portion of the water heater tank. Hissing could be a sign that there is a leak or condensation. The majority of sounds are benign, but it's still a smart idea to have it checked.

Low Hot Water Pressure

If you have a recent drop in hot water pressure, it might be caused by sediment in your pipes or faucets.

Mineral Build Up
