Standard tank type water heaters are big storage tanks which house between 30 and 80 gallons of water. They are greatly insulated to ensure your water will continue to be piping hot any time you want it.
Tank water heaters are generally dependable, though they occasionally have issues. These are a few commonly occurring issues that affect standard tank type gas and electric water heaters.
The most common cause of no hot water in the water heater is a blown fuse. The first thing you should check is the breaker box.
If the fuse box is not a problem then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater may be faulty. On a gas water heater, the important things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rusty hot water might be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If left unresolved, corrosion could cause further deterioration and result in a leak in the water tank. Changing out 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 does not contain rust may be due to hard water build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.
Hot water that smells like rotten eggs or sulfur is usually caused by bacteria build up inside the water heater.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank could be from a number of problems. 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 of the water heater might 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 may be clogged, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve could be malfunctioning, or the thermocouple requires changing.
Weird sounds from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other sounds commonly happen 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. The majority of sounds are benign, but it's still a good idea to have it checked.
If you experience a sudden drop in hot water pressure, it may be caused by calcium deposits in your pipes or faucets.
