No Hot Water

The most frequent cause of no hot water in the water heater is a blown circuit breaker. The first thing you should evaluate is the fuse box.

If the fuse box is okay then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater could need replacing. 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 might be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If left unresolved, corrosion could eventually cause further deterioration and result in a leak in the water tank. Replacing an anode rod is a relatively simple process and it could extend the life of your water heater by a few years.

Hot water that is simply discolored, but isn't rusty might be due to scale build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.

Smelly Hot Water

Hot water that has an odor of rotten eggs or sulfur likely is caused from bacteria which has amassed inside the water heater.

Water Leaking from the Bottom

A water leak from the base of the tank might be due to a few issues. It could be caused by 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

Water leaking from above the water heater may be due to the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a damaged 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 might be blocked, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve may be malfunctioning, or the thermocouple requires replacement.

Strange Noises

Odd noises from your water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other sounds frequently occur 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. The majority of sounds are benign, but it's still a wise idea to have it inspected.

Low Hot Water Pressure

If you experience a sudden reduction in hot water pressure, it may be caused by calcium build up in your pipes or faucets.
