Standard tank style water heaters are big holding tanks which contain up to 80 gallons of water. They are greatly insulated to help make sure your water will remain piping hot any time you you desire it.
Tank water heaters are usually able to be counted on, however they sometimes have problems. Below are a few frequently occurring problems that affect standard tank type gas and electric water heaters.
The most typical cause of no 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 not a problem then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater might need replacement. On a gas water heater, the important things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rusty hot water can be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If left unresolved, corrosion could cause further deterioration and develop a leak in the water tank. Changing out an anode rod is a relatively easy process and it often extend the life of your water heater by a few years.
Hot water that is only discolored, but is not rusty might be caused from scale build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.
Hot water that has an odor of rotten eggs or sulfur likely is caused from bacteria which has amassed in the water heater.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank could be caused by a number of issues. It could be caused by a temperature and pressure valve, condensation, a leaking gasket, corrosion of the tank, or draining from the overflow pipe.
Water leaking from above the water heater could be caused by 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 could be clogged, there may be air in the gas line, the gas valve could be broken, or the thermocouple requires replacement.
Odd noises 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 water heater tank. Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. Most sounds are benign, but it's still a good idea to have it inspected.
If you experience a recent decrease in hot water pressure, it could be caused by sediment in your pipes or faucets.
Tankless water heaters are the most recent type of water heater. They are more power efficient than their tank cousins, cost less to run and usually have a longer life, but are more costly up front. They require a lot less space and do not run out of hot water, but in the beginning can need some extra attachments and re-plumbing or re-routing of gas and water lines.
