Standard tank models of water heaters are hefty storage tanks which hold between 30 and 80 gallons of water. They are highly insulated to help make sure your water will remain nice and hot any time you want it.
Tank water heaters are normally able to be counted on, though they can have issues. Below are some common 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 blown fuse. The first thing you 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 require replacement. On a gas water heater, the important things to look at are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rust colored hot water can be caused by 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 easy job and it may extend the life of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is just discolored, but not rusty may be caused by hard water build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.
Hot water which smells like rotten eggs or sulfur is usually caused by bacteria which has amassed in the hot water tank.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank could be from a few 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 might be caused by 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 clogged, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve might be broken, or the thermocouple needs replacement.
Weird noises from your 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 tank. Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. Most noises are nothing to worry about, but it's still a good idea to have it inspected.
If you have a sudden decrease in hot water pressure, it may be caused by sediment in your pipes or faucets.
Tankless water heaters are the most recent breed of water heater. They are more power efficient than their tank counterparts, cost less to run and usually have a longer lifespan, but are more expensive initially. They need a lot less space and do not run out of hot water, but in the beginning can require some extra gadgets and re-plumbing or re-routing of gas and water lines.

A tankless water heater needs more gas than a typical heater, and may require the installation of bigger gas piping. You also should make sure that your current water piping can support a tankless heater.

Sediment build up happens frequently and can cause damage to your water heater. Having a water softener put in could slow the build up. Another solution is to have your water heater flushed twice a year with a descaling cleaner.
The majority of tankless water heaters have a screen which puts out an error code when there is an issue. There are a broad variety of reasons why an error code may appear.
