Standard tank models of water heaters are hefty storage tanks which store between 30 and 80 gallons of water. They are greatly 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 problems. Below are a few commonly occurring 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 breaker box.
If the circuit breaker is okay then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater might need replacing. On a gas water heater, the critical things to look at are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rusty hot water can be caused by corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If left unresolved, corrosion could cause further deterioration and result in a leak in the water tank. Changing out an anode rod is a relatively simple process and it could extend the life of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is only discolored, but isn't rusty could be caused by calcification build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.
Hot water that smells like rotten eggs or sulfur is generally caused by bacteria growth in the water heater tank.
A water leak from the base of the tank might be due to a number of problems. 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 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 several 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 might be defective, or the thermocouple needs changing.
Strange noises from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other sounds frequently happen when there is a buildup of sediment in the bottom of the tank. Hissing could be a sign that there is a leak or condensation. The majority of noises are nothing to worry about, but it's still a smart idea to have it checked.
If you experience a recent drop in hot water pressure, it might be caused by calcium deposits in your pipes or faucets.
