Standard tank models of water heaters are big storage tanks which store from 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are greatly insulated to ensure your water will stay nice and hot whenever you you desire it.
Tank water heaters are usually dependable, though they occasionally have problems. These are some commonly occurring issues that affect standard tank style gas and electric water heaters.
The most common cause of no hot water in the water heater is a fuse has tripped. The first 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 could need replacement. On a gas water heater, the important things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rust colored hot water could be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this remains unresolved, corrosion could progress and develop a leak in the water tank. Changing out an anode rod is a fairly easy procedure and it often extend the lifetime of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is simply discolored, but isn't rusty could be caused by hard water build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.
Hot water which smells like rotten eggs or sulfur is likely caused by bacteria which has amassed in the water heater tank.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank can be from several different problems. It could be related to 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 of the water heater could be due to the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a malfunctioning 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 could be defective, or the thermocouple requires replacement.
Strange sounds from your 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 water heater. Hissing could be a sign that there is a leak or condensation. The majority of sounds are benign, but it's still a smart idea to have it checked.
If you experience a recent drop in hot water pressure, it may be caused by calcium deposits in your pipes or faucets.
