Standard tank type water heaters are hefty holding tanks which house from 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are greatly insulated to help make sure your water will remain nice and hot whenever you want it.
Tank water heaters are normally able to be counted on, however they occasionally have issues. Below are some common issues that affect standard tank type gas and electric water heaters.
The most common cause of no hot water in the water heater is a blown circuit breaker. The first thing you should check is the fuse box.
If the circuit breaker is okay then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater may be faulty. 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 remains untreated, corrosion could eventually cause further deterioration and develop a leak in the water tank. Changing out an anode rod is a relatively uncomplicated procedure and it could extend the lifetime of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is only discolored, but isn't rusty is likely caused by scale 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.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank can be caused by a number of problems. It could be from 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 may be from 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 blocked, there may be air in the gas line, the gas valve might be broken, or the thermocouple needs replacement.
Odd noises from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other sounds commonly take place when there is a buildup of sediment in the bottom of the water heater. Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. Most sounds are nothing serious, but it's still a smart idea to have it inspected.
If you experience a sudden decrease in hot water pressure, it could be caused by calcium build up in your pipes or faucets.
Tankless water heaters are the newest type of water heater. They are more power efficient than their tank counterparts, are more cost efficient to run and tend to last longer, but are more expensive up front. They require much less less space and don't run out of hot water, but in the beginning can need some extra apparatus and re-plumbing or re-routing of gas and water lines.
