Standard tank type water heaters are large holding tanks which store up to 80 gallons of water. They are greatly insulated to help make sure your water will remain nice and hot any time you you desire it.
Tank water heaters are normally able to be counted on, though they can have problems. These are some commonly occurring problems that affect standard tank type gas and electric water heaters.
The most common cause of no hot water in the water heater is a blown circuit breaker. The initial thing one should check is the fuse box.
If the fuse box is not an issue then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater could need replacing. On a gas water heater, the critical 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 remains unresolved, corrosion could progress 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 just discolored, but isn't rusty is likely due to hard water build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.
Hot water which has an odor of rotten eggs or sulfur is likely caused by bacteria build up in the water heater.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank could be from several different 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 the top of the water heater may 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 may be blocked, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve could be defective, or the thermocouple needs replacing.
Odd 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 bottom of the water heater. Hissing could be a sign that there is a leak or condensation. The majority of noises are nothing serious, but it's still a wise idea to have it checked.
If you have a sudden reduction in hot water pressure, it may be caused by sediment in your pipes or faucets.
