Standard tank type water heaters are big holding tanks which house 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are immensely insulated to ensure your water will remain piping hot any time you want it.
Tank water heaters are usually able to be counted on, however they occasionally have problems. Below are some common issues that affect standard tank type gas and electric water heaters.
The most common reason there isn't any hot water in the water heater is a circuit breaker has tripped. The initial thing one should evaluate is the fuse box.
If the fuse box is okay then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater could need replacement. On a gas water heater, the important things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rusty hot water might be caused by corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this remains unresolved, corrosion could eventually cause further deterioration and develop a leak in the water tank. Replacing an anode rod is a relatively uncomplicated process and it could extend the life of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is only discolored, but does not contain rust is likely caused by scale build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.
Hot water that has an odor of rotten eggs or sulfur is likely caused from bacteria which has amassed in the water heater tank.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank could be caused by a few issues. 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 from the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a malfunctioning temperature and pressure valve, or a loose connection.
There are several reasons why a pilot will not light or stay lit. The pilot light tube could be clogged, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve may be malfunctioning, or the thermocouple requires replacing.
Weird sounds from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other sounds frequently occur when there is a buildup of sediment in the bottom of the water heater. Hissing could be a sign that there is a leak or condensation. The majority of sounds are nothing serious, but it's still a good idea to have it checked.
If you experience a recent drop in hot water pressure, it might be caused by calcium deposits in your pipes or faucets.

They are more power efficient than their tank cousins, are more economical to run and tend to have a longer life, but are more expensive to purchase.
