Standard tank style water heaters are big storage tanks which store 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are highly insulated to ensure your water will continue to be nice and hot whenever you want it.
Tank water heaters are quite dependable, however they can have issues. Below are a few common problems that affect standard tank type gas and electric water heaters.
The most common reason there isn't any hot water in the water heater is a blown fuse. 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 may be faulty. On a gas water heater, the key things to look at are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rusty hot water might be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If left unresolved, corrosion can cause further deterioration and result in a leak in the tank. Changing out an anode rod is a relatively simple procedure and it often extend the lifetime of your water heater by a few years.
Hot water that is simply discolored, but isn't rusty might be due to hard water build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.
Hot water which has an odor of rotten eggs or sulfur is likely caused from bacteria build up in the hot water tank.
A water leak from the base of the tank might be due to several different problems. 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 above the water heater might be due to 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 clogged, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve may be broken, or the thermocouple needs changing.
Weird noises from your water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other sounds frequently occur when there is a buildup of sediment in the lower portion of the tank. Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. The majority of noises are nothing serious, but it's still a wise idea to have it inspected.
If you experience a recent decrease in hot water pressure, it may 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 tend to have a longer life, but are more costly to purchase. They demand much less less space and never run out of hot water, but at the start can require some extra accessories and re-plumbing or re-routing of gas and water lines.
