No Hot Water

The most frequent reason there isn't any hot water in the water heater is a circuit breaker has tripped. The initial thing one should check is the fuse box.

If the fuse box is okay then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater might need replacing. On a gas water heater, the important things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.

Rusty, Dirty, or Discolored Water

Rust colored hot water can be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this remains untreated, corrosion could cause further deterioration and result in a leak in the tank. Changing out an anode rod is a relatively easy procedure and it may extend the lifetime of your water heater by several 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.

Smelly Hot Water

Hot water which has an odor of rotten eggs or sulfur generally is caused from bacteria build up inside the water heater tank.

Water Leaking from the Bottom

A water leak from the bottom of the tank can be caused by several different issues. It could be from 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

Water leaking from above the water heater might be from the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a damaged temperature and pressure valve, or a loose connection.

Pilot Light Issues

There are several 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 might be malfunctioning, or the thermocouple requires replacement.

Strange Noises

Odd sounds from your water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises frequently happen when there is a buildup of sediment in the lower portion of the tank. Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. Most sounds are nothing serious, but it's still a good idea to have it checked.

Low Hot Water Pressure

If you experience a recent decrease in hot water pressure, it might be caused by calcium deposits in your pipes or faucets.
