Standard tank models of water heaters are hefty holding tanks which house 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are highly insulated to ensure your water will continue to be nice and hot any time you want it.
Tank water heaters are usually dependable, though they can have issues. These are some common problems that affect standard tank style gas and electric water heaters.
The most typical reason there is no hot water in the water heater is a circuit breaker has tripped. The first thing one should evaluate is the fuse box.
If the circuit breaker is not an issue then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater may be faulty. On a gas water heater, the critical things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rust colored hot water can be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this remains unresolved, corrosion could progress and develop a leak in the tank. Changing out an anode rod is a relatively simple process and it may extend the lifetime of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is simply discolored, but isn't rusty is likely caused from 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 build up in the hot water tank.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank can be due to a number of problems. It could be from 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 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 blocked, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve might be defective, or the thermocouple needs replacing.
Odd sounds 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 lower portion of the water heater tank. Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. The majority of noises are nothing serious, but it's still a smart idea to have it inspected.
If you have a recent reduction in hot water pressure, it might be caused by sediment in your pipes or faucets.
