Standard tank type water heaters are large holding tanks which hold from 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are greatly insulated to ensure your water will continue to be nice and hot whenever you want it.
Tank water heaters are usually dependable, however they sometimes have issues. Below are a few frequently occurring problems that affect standard tank type gas and electric water heaters.
The most common reason there is not any hot water in the water heater is a blown circuit breaker. The initial thing you should check is the fuse box.
If the fuse box is not a problem then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater may need replacement. On a gas water heater, the key things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rusty hot water can be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this is not treated, corrosion will eventually cause further deterioration and result in a leak in the water tank. Changing out an anode rod is a fairly simple process and it could extend the lifetime of your water heater by a few years.
Hot water that is just discolored, but is not rusty may be caused from hard water build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.
Hot water which smells like rotten eggs or sulfur generally is caused from bacteria build up in the water heater.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank could be due to several different issues. It could be caused by a temperature and pressure valve, condensation, a leaking gasket, deterioration of the tank, or draining from the overflow pipe.
Water leaking from the top of the water heater could be caused by the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a damaged temperature and pressure valve, or a loose connection.
There are several reasons why a pilot will not light or stay lit. The pilot light tube could be blocked, there may be air in the gas line, the gas valve may be defective, or the thermocouple requires 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 lower portion of the tank. Hissing could be a sign that there is a leak or condensation. Most noises are nothing to worry about, but it's still a good idea to have it checked.
If you have a sudden reduction in hot water pressure, it could be caused by calcium deposits in your pipes or faucets.

They are more energy efficient than their tank counterparts, are more economical to run and usually have a longer lifespan, but are more expensive initially.
