No Hot Water

The most common reason there is no hot water in the water heater is a circuit breaker has tripped. The initial thing one should check is the fuse box.

If the fuse box is not an issue then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater might need replacement. On a gas water heater, the critical things to look at are the pilot and the gas control valve.

Rusty, Dirty, or Discolored Water

Rusty hot water could be caused by corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this remains untreated, corrosion can cause further deterioration and result in a leak in the tank. Replacing an anode rod is a fairly uncomplicated procedure and it could extend the lifetime of your water heater by several years.

Hot water that is only discolored, but not rusty may be caused by scale 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 generally is caused from bacteria which has amassed in the water heater tank.

Water Leaking from the Bottom

A water leak from the bottom of the tank can be due to a few problems. It could be related to 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 the top of the water heater might 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 a few reasons why a pilot will not light or stay lit. The pilot light tube might be clogged, there may be air in the gas line, the gas valve may be broken, or the thermocouple needs changing.

Strange Sounds

Strange noises from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises commonly occur when there is a buildup of sediment in the bottom of the water heater tank. Hissing could be a sign that there is a leak or condensation. The majority of sounds are nothing serious, but it's still a wise idea to have it inspected.

Low Hot Water Pressure

If you experience a sudden decrease in hot water pressure, it could be caused by calcium deposits in your pipes or faucets.
