Standard tank style water heaters are hefty storage tanks which house between 30 and 80 gallons of water. They are tremendously insulated to help make sure your water will remain piping hot whenever you you desire it.
Tank water heaters are generally able to be counted on, however they occasionally have problems. Below are some common problems that affect standard tank style gas and electric water heaters.
The most common cause of no hot water in the water heater is a fuse has tripped. The initial thing you should evaluate is the breaker box.
If the circuit breaker is okay then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater may require replacement. On a gas water heater, the critical 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 untreated, corrosion can cause further deterioration and develop a leak in the tank. Replacing an anode rod is a fairly simple procedure and it often extend the life of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is simply discolored, but not rusty may be due to calcification build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.
Hot water which smells like rotten eggs or sulfur likely is caused from bacteria growth inside the hot water tank.
A water leak from the base of the tank could be caused by a few different problems. It could be related to 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 may be due to the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a malfunctioning temperature and pressure valve, or a loose connection.
There are a few 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 might be broken, or the thermocouple needs replacing.
Weird sounds from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises commonly take place when there is a buildup of sediment in the bottom of the tank. Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. The majority of sounds are benign, but it's still a good idea to have it inspected.
If you have a recent decrease in hot water pressure, it might be caused by calcium deposits in your pipes or faucets.
