Standard tank style water heaters are hefty storage tanks which contain up to 80 gallons of water. They are greatly insulated to ensure your water will remain piping hot any time you would like it.
Tank water heaters are generally able to be counted on, though they sometimes have issues. Below are a few commonly occurring issues that affect standard tank style gas and electric water heaters.
The most frequent cause of no hot water in the water heater is a fuse has tripped. The first thing one should evaluate is the fuse box.
If the circuit breaker 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.
Rust colored hot water could be caused by corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this is not treated, corrosion can progress and develop a leak in the water tank. Replacing an anode rod is a relatively uncomplicated process and it often extend the life of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is only discolored, but does not contain rust may 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 usually caused from bacteria build up inside the hot water tank.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank can be caused by a few 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 may be from the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a faulty 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 might be blocked, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve might be broken, or the thermocouple requires replacement.
Strange noises from your water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises commonly occur when there is a buildup of sediment in the bottom of the water heater tank. Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. Most noises are nothing to worry about, but it's still a smart idea to have it checked.
If you experience a sudden decrease in hot water pressure, it could be caused by calcium deposits in your pipes or faucets.
