Standard tank style water heaters are large storage tanks which hold from 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are immensely insulated to ensure your water will remain nice and hot any time you want it.
Tank water heaters are normally dependable, however they sometimes have problems. Below are some commonly occurring problems that affect standard tank style gas and electric water heaters.
The most typical reason there is not any 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 critical 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 unresolved, corrosion could eventually progress and result in a leak in the water tank. Changing out an anode rod is a fairly uncomplicated job and it could extend the life of your water heater by a few years.
Hot water that is simply discolored, but does not contain rust may be caused by scale build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.
Hot water that smells like rotten eggs or sulfur likely is caused from bacteria build up in the water heater.
A water leak from the base of the tank can be caused by 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 may be caused by the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a faulty 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 could be clogged, there may be air in the gas line, the gas valve may be defective, or the thermocouple needs replacement.
Strange 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 water heater. 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 wise idea to have it checked.
If you have a recent reduction in hot water pressure, it might be caused by calcium build up in your pipes or faucets.
