Standard tank models of water heaters are large holding tanks which store 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are immensely insulated to help make sure your water will continue to be nice and hot whenever you want it.
Tank water heaters are quite dependable, however they sometimes have problems. Below are some frequently occurring problems that affect standard tank style gas and electric water heaters.
The most typical cause of no hot water in the water heater is a blown fuse. The first thing you should check is the breaker box.
If the fuse box is not a problem then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater may need replacing. On a gas water heater, the key 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 develop a leak in the tank. Changing out an anode rod is a relatively simple process and it may extend the life of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is just discolored, but not rusty is likely due to hard water build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.
Hot water which smells like rotten eggs or sulfur likely is caused from bacteria which has amassed inside the water heater tank.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank could be due to a number of 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 could 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 could be clogged, there may be air in the gas line, the gas valve may be malfunctioning, or the thermocouple needs changing.
Weird sounds from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises commonly happen when there is a buildup of sediment in the bottom of the tank. Hissing could be a sign that there is a leak or condensation. The majority of sounds are nothing serious, but it's still a wise idea to have it inspected.
If you experience a recent decrease in hot water pressure, it could be caused by calcium build up in your pipes or faucets.
Tankless water heaters are the most recent type of water heater. They are more power efficient than their tank cousins, are more cost efficient to run and usually have a longer lifespan, but are more costly to purchase.
