Standard tank type water heaters are hefty holding tanks which contain from 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are tremendously insulated to ensure your water will remain nice and hot whenever you would like it.
Tank water heaters are quite able to be counted on, though they sometimes have issues. Below are a few common issues 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 fuse has tripped. The initial thing you should evaluate is the fuse box.
If the circuit breaker is okay then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater may need replacement. On a gas water heater, the important things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rust colored hot water can be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this remains unresolved, corrosion could eventually progress and develop a leak in the tank. Changing out an anode rod is a fairly easy procedure and it often extend the life of your water heater by a few years.
Hot water that is just discolored, but not rusty might be due to calcification build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.
Hot water which has an odor of rotten eggs or sulfur generally is caused by bacteria build up in the water heater.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank could be caused by a number of issues. 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 could be due to the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a damaged 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 may be clogged, there may be air in the gas line, the gas valve might be defective, or the thermocouple requires replacing.
Odd noises from your water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other sounds commonly take place 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 benign, but it's still a good idea to have it inspected.
If you have a sudden drop in hot water pressure, it might be caused by sediment in your pipes or faucets.
Tankless water heaters are the newest breed of water heater. They are more energy efficient than their tank counterparts, are more economical to run and generally have a longer life, but are more costly to purchase.

A tankless water heater utilizes more gas than a typical heater, and may require wider diameter gas lines. You should verify that your existing water pipes can accommodate a tankless heater.

Mineral build up happens a lot and can cause damage to your water heater. Having a water softener installed could slow the build up. An additional solution is to have your water heater flushed twice a year with a descaler.
