Standard tank style water heaters are big storage tanks which house from 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are greatly insulated to ensure your water will continue to be piping hot any time you would like it.
Tank water heaters are quite able to be counted on, however they sometimes have problems. Below are some frequently occurring problems that affect standard tank type gas and electric water heaters.
The most frequent reason there is no hot water in the water heater is a fuse has tripped. The first thing you should check is the fuse box.
If the circuit breaker is fine then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater may need replacing. On a gas water heater, the critical 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 unresolved, corrosion can cause further deterioration and result in a leak in the water tank. Changing out an anode rod is a relatively easy procedure and it may extend the lifetime of your water heater by a few years.
Hot water that is simply discolored, but does not contain rust is likely caused by hard water build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.
Hot water that smells like rotten eggs or sulfur generally is caused from bacteria growth inside the hot water tank.
A water leak from the base of the tank can be due to a few 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 might be due to the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a damaged 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 clogged, there may be air in the gas line, the gas valve could be broken, or the thermocouple requires replacement.
Odd sounds 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 lower portion of the water heater tank. Hissing could be a sign that there is a leak or condensation. Most sounds are benign, but it's still a wise idea to have it checked.
If you have a sudden reduction in hot water pressure, it might be caused by calcium build up in your pipes or faucets.
