Standard tank models of water heaters are big holding tanks which store up to 80 gallons of water. They are immensely insulated to help make sure your water will remain nice and hot whenever you want it.
Tank water heaters are usually able to be counted on, though they sometimes have issues. Below are a few common problems that affect standard tank type gas and electric water heaters.
The most common reason there is no hot water in the water heater is a fuse has tripped. The first thing one should check is the fuse box.
If the fuse box is not a problem then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater might be faulty. On a gas water heater, the key things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rusty hot water might be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If left untreated, corrosion can progress and develop a leak in the tank. Replacing an anode rod is a relatively uncomplicated job and it may extend the lifetime of your water heater by a few years.
Hot water that is simply discolored, but not rusty is likely caused by hard water build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.
Hot water that has an odor of rotten eggs or sulfur likely is caused by bacteria build up in the hot water tank.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank could be due to several different problems. 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 the top of the water heater could be caused by 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 may be blocked, there may be air in the gas line, the gas valve may be broken, or the thermocouple needs changing.
Weird 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 lower portion of the water heater. Hissing could be a sign that there is a leak or condensation. Most noises are benign, but it's still a good idea to have it checked.
If you have a recent drop in hot water pressure, it may be caused by calcium build up in your pipes or faucets.
