Tank water heaters are usually dependable, however they sometimes have issues. These are a few common issues that affect standard tank style gas and electric water heaters.

Water leaking from above the water heater may be from 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 might be clogged, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve may be broken, or the thermocouple needs replacement.
Odd sounds from your water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises commonly occur 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 sounds are nothing serious, but it's still a wise idea to have it inspected.
If you experience a sudden reduction in hot water pressure, it could be caused by calcium build up in your pipes or faucets.
