Standard tank models of water heaters are big holding tanks which hold 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are immensely insulated to help make sure your water will continue to be piping hot whenever you would like it.
Tank water heaters are usually dependable, however they sometimes have problems. Below are some commonly occurring issues that affect standard tank style gas and electric water heaters.
The most frequent reason there is not any hot water in the water heater is a fuse has tripped. The initial thing you should check is the fuse 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 key things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rust colored hot water could be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this remains untreated, corrosion could progress and result in a leak in the tank. Replacing an anode rod is a relatively simple process and it may extend the lifetime of your water heater by a few years.
Hot water that is simply discolored, but isn't rusty might be caused from scale build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.
Hot water which smells like rotten eggs or sulfur is likely caused from bacteria growth in the water heater.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank might be caused by a few issues. It could be from a temperature and pressure valve, condensation, a leaking gasket, break down 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 faulty 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 may be blocked, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve may be broken, or the thermocouple needs changing.
Odd noises from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises frequently take place when there is a buildup of sediment in the bottom of the tank. Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. The majority of noises are nothing serious, but it's still a good idea to have it inspected.
If you have a sudden decrease in hot water pressure, it could be caused by calcium deposits in your pipes or faucets.
