Standard tank type water heaters are big holding tanks which store from 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are highly insulated to ensure your water will stay piping hot whenever you want it.
Tank water heaters are normally able to be counted on, however they can have problems. These are some commonly occurring issues that affect standard tank style gas and electric water heaters.
The most common reason there isn't 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 might be faulty. On a gas water heater, the important things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rust colored hot water can be caused by corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If left unresolved, corrosion could eventually cause further deterioration and result in a leak in the water tank. Replacing an anode rod is a relatively easy job and it often extend the life of your water heater by a few years.
Hot water that is just discolored, but does not contain rust could be due to calcification build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.
Hot water that has an odor of rotten eggs or sulfur is generally caused by bacteria growth inside the hot water tank.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank could be from several different problems. It could be caused by a temperature and pressure valve, condensation, a leaking gasket, corrosion of the tank, or draining from the overflow pipe.
Water leaking from above the water heater could 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 changing.
Strange noises from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises frequently happen when there is a buildup of sediment in the bottom of the water heater. Hissing could be a sign that there is a leak or condensation. Most noises are nothing serious, but it's still a smart idea to have it checked.
If you experience a sudden reduction in hot water pressure, it might be caused by sediment in your pipes or faucets.
Tankless water heaters are the newest type of water heater. They are more energy efficient than their tank counterparts, cost less to run and generally have a longer life, but are more costly up front. They demand a lot less space and don't run out of hot water, but upon installation can need some extra apparatus and re-plumbing or re-routing of gas and water lines.

A tankless water heater uses more gas than a typical heater, and may need the installation of larger gas lines. You will also need to make sure that your existing water piping can support a tankless heater.
One of the most commonly occurring issues in tankless water heaters is no hot water. This may be caused by a number of things including a gas, electricity, or water supply problem, ignition failure, an error code in the machine, a clogged pipe, or frozen pipe.
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 per year with a descaler.
Most tankless water heaters have a screen that puts out an error code when there is a problem. There are a wide range of reasons why an error code may display.
