No Hot Water

The most frequent reason there isn't any hot water in the water heater is a blown circuit breaker. The first thing you should check is the fuse box.

If the circuit breaker is fine then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater could need 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 due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If left untreated, corrosion could progress and develop a leak in the tank. Changing out an anode rod is a relatively simple process and it could extend the lifetime of your water heater by several years.

Hot water that is only discolored, but isn't rusty may be caused from scale build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.

Smelly Hot Water

Hot water that smells like rotten eggs or sulfur is generally caused from bacteria which has amassed in the hot water tank.

Water Leaking from the Bottom

A water leak from the base of the tank can be from 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 might be caused by 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 replacement.

Strange Sounds

Weird noises from your water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other sounds frequently 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. Most sounds are benign, but it's still a wise idea to have it checked.

Low Hot Water Pressure

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