No Hot Water

The most frequent cause of no hot water in the water heater is a blown fuse. The initial thing one should check is the breaker box.

If the fuse box is not an issue then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater could need replacing. On a gas water heater, the important things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.

Rusty, Dirty, or Discolored Water

Rusty hot water can be caused by corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this is not treated, corrosion can progress and result in a leak in the water tank. Replacing an anode rod is a fairly easy job and it often extend the lifetime of your water heater by several years.

Hot water that is just discolored, but is not rusty might be caused from calcification build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.

Smelly Hot Water

Hot water that smells like rotten eggs or sulfur likely is caused from bacteria build up in the hot water tank.

Water Leaking from the Bottom

A water leak from the bottom of the tank might be from a number of problems. It could be caused by a temperature and pressure valve, condensation, a leaking gasket, corrosion of the tank, or draining from the overflow pipe.

Water Leaking from the Top

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.

Pilot Light Problems

There are several reasons why a pilot will not light or stay lit. The pilot light tube may be blocked, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve may be malfunctioning, or the thermocouple needs changing.

Strange Sounds

Weird noises from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other sounds frequently take place when there is a buildup of sediment in the bottom of the water heater tank. Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. Most noises are benign, but it's still a smart idea to have it checked.

Low Hot Water Pressure

If you have a recent decrease in hot water pressure, it might be caused by calcium build up in your pipes or faucets.
