Standard tank style water heaters are large holding tanks which store from 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are highly insulated to help make sure your water will stay piping hot any time you you desire it.
Tank water heaters are usually dependable, though they occasionally have problems. Below are some common issues that affect standard tank style gas and electric water heaters.
The most typical reason there isn't any hot water in the water heater is a blown circuit breaker. The initial thing you should check 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 need replacement. On a gas water heater, the key things to look at 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 left untreated, corrosion can cause further deterioration and result in a leak in the water tank. Changing out an anode rod is a fairly easy process and it may extend the lifetime of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is only discolored, but not rusty could be caused from scale build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.
Hot water that smells like rotten eggs or sulfur is usually caused by bacteria growth inside the water heater.
A water leak from the base of the tank might be from several different issues. It could be related to 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 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 requires replacing.
Odd noises from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises frequently happen 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 sounds are benign, but it's still a wise idea to have it inspected.
If you experience a recent reduction in hot water pressure, it may be caused by calcium build up in your pipes or faucets.

They are more energy efficient than their tank cousins, are more cost efficient to run and generally last longer, but are more costly up front.
