Standard tank style water heaters are large holding tanks which house 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are tremendously insulated to ensure your water will continue to be piping hot any time you you desire it.
Tank water heaters are generally dependable, though they can have problems. These are some commonly occurring problems 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 fuse has tripped. The initial thing one should evaluate is the breaker box.
If the circuit breaker is not a problem then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater could require replacement. On a gas water heater, the key things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rusty hot water could be caused by corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If left unresolved, corrosion can cause further deterioration and develop a leak in the water tank. Changing out an anode rod is a fairly uncomplicated process and it often extend the life of your water heater by a few years.
Hot water that is only discolored, but not rusty might be 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 build up in the hot water tank.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank could be due to several different issues. It could be related to a temperature and pressure valve, condensation, a leaking gasket, deterioration 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 faulty 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 might be clogged, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve could be broken, or the thermocouple needs changing.
Strange sounds from your water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other sounds frequently take place when there is a buildup of sediment in the lower portion of the tank. Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. Most sounds are nothing to worry about, but it's still a wise idea to have it checked.
If you have a recent decrease in hot water pressure, it might be caused by calcium build up in your pipes or faucets.
