Standard tank type water heaters are hefty storage tanks which house 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are immensely insulated to ensure your water will remain piping hot whenever you want it.
Tank water heaters are normally dependable, however they sometimes have problems. Below are some common issues that affect standard tank type gas and electric water heaters.
The most frequent reason there is not any hot water in the water heater is a blown fuse. The first thing you should evaluate is the breaker box.
If the circuit breaker is not an issue then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater may need replacing. On a gas water heater, the important things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rust colored hot water might be caused by corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this is not treated, corrosion could cause further deterioration and result in a leak in the tank. Changing out an anode rod is a relatively simple procedure and it may extend the lifetime of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is simply discolored, but isn't rusty is likely caused from hard water build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.
Hot water which has an odor of rotten eggs or sulfur generally is caused from bacteria which has amassed in the water heater.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank can be from several different problems. It could be related to 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 due to 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 might be blocked, there may be air in the gas line, the gas valve might be broken, or the thermocouple needs replacing.
Strange noises from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises frequently happen when there is a buildup of sediment in the bottom of the water heater. Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. The majority of noises are nothing to worry about, but it's still a wise idea to have it inspected.
If you experience a recent reduction in hot water pressure, it might be caused by sediment in your pipes or faucets.
