Standard tank style water heaters are hefty storage tanks which store from 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are immensely insulated to ensure your water will stay piping hot any time you would like it.
Tank water heaters are generally dependable, though they sometimes have problems. Below are some common issues that affect standard tank style gas and electric water heaters.
The most common reason there is no hot water in the water heater is a circuit breaker has tripped. The initial thing you should evaluate is the breaker box.
If the fuse box is fine then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater could be faulty. On a gas water heater, the important things to look at are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rust colored hot water could be due to 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 water tank. Changing out an anode rod is a relatively easy job and it may extend the life of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is simply discolored, but not rusty could be due to hard water build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.
Hot water that has an odor of rotten eggs or sulfur is generally caused from bacteria which has amassed inside the water heater tank.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank might be due to a few different issues. 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 caused by the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a malfunctioning 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 might be clogged, there may be air in the gas line, the gas valve may be broken, or the thermocouple requires replacing.
Strange sounds from your 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 noises are nothing to worry about, but it's still a good idea to have it inspected.
If you have a sudden reduction in hot water pressure, it may be caused by calcium build up in your pipes or faucets.
