No Hot Water

The most frequent reason there is no hot water in the water heater is a blown fuse. The initial thing one should evaluate is the breaker box.

If the fuse box is okay then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater may be faulty. On a gas water heater, the key things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.

Rusty, Dirty, or Discolored Water

Rusty hot water could be caused by corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this remains untreated, corrosion will eventually progress and develop a leak in the water tank. Changing out an anode rod is a relatively uncomplicated job and it often extend the life of your water heater by several years.

Hot water that is only discolored, but is not rusty might be caused by calcification 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 is generally caused by bacteria which has amassed inside the water heater.

Water Leaking from the Bottom

A water leak from the bottom of the tank might be from 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

Water leaking from the top of the water heater may be caused by the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a malfunctioning 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 may be blocked, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve might be malfunctioning, or the thermocouple requires changing.

Strange Sounds

Weird noises from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises frequently 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. The majority of noises are nothing serious, but it's still a good idea to have it checked.

Low Hot Water Pressure

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