Standard tank type water heaters are hefty holding tanks which contain from 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are highly insulated to ensure your water will continue to be piping hot whenever you you desire it.
Tank water heaters are normally able to be counted on, though they sometimes have problems. Below are a few common problems 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 initial thing one should check is the breaker box.
If the fuse box is not an issue then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater may be faulty. On a gas water heater, the important things to look at are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rusty hot water could be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this remains untreated, corrosion can cause further deterioration and result in a leak in the tank. Replacing an anode rod is a relatively simple procedure and it could extend the life of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is simply discolored, but not rusty might be due to calcification build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.
Hot water that has an odor of rotten eggs or sulfur is likely caused from bacteria build up inside the hot water tank.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank could be from several different problems. It could be related to 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 malfunctioning 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 clogged, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve may be defective, or the thermocouple needs replacement.
Strange noises from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises frequently occur when there is a buildup of sediment in the lower portion of the water heater tank. Hissing could be a sign that there is a leak or condensation. The majority of sounds are nothing serious, but it's still a smart idea to have it inspected.
If you have a recent decrease in hot water pressure, it could be caused by calcium deposits in your pipes or faucets.
Tankless water heaters are the most recent type of water heater. They are more energy efficient than their tank cousins, are more economical to run and generally have a longer lifespan, but are more costly to purchase.
