Standard tank type water heaters are large holding tanks which house between 30 and 80 gallons of water. They are immensely insulated to ensure your water will stay nice and hot whenever you want it.
Tank water heaters are normally able to be counted on, however they occasionally have problems. These are a few common problems that affect standard tank style gas and electric water heaters.
The most typical cause of no hot water in the water heater is a blown circuit breaker. The first thing you should evaluate is the breaker box.
If the fuse box is fine then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater might need 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 untreated, corrosion could eventually progress and develop a leak in the tank. Changing out an anode rod is a relatively uncomplicated procedure and it could extend the life of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is just discolored, but does not contain rust could be caused by 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 generally caused by bacteria which has amassed in the hot water tank.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank could be due to a few different issues. It could be caused by a temperature and pressure valve, condensation, a leaking gasket, corrosion of the tank, or draining from the overflow pipe.
Water leaking from above the water heater may be due to the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a malfunctioning 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 may be broken, or the thermocouple needs replacing.
Odd sounds from your water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises commonly 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. Most sounds are nothing serious, but it's still a wise idea to have it checked.
If you experience a sudden decrease in hot water pressure, it could be caused by calcium build up in your pipes or faucets.

They are more power efficient than their tank counterparts, cost less to run and generally have a longer lifespan, but are more costly to purchase. They require tremendously less space and won't run out of hot water, but initially can need some extra equipment and re-plumbing or re-routing of gas and water lines.

A tankless water heater uses more gas than a typical heater, and may need larger gas piping. You will want to make sure that your current water lines can accommodate a tankless heater.
One of the most frequent issues in tankless water heaters is no hot water. This may be due to a number of things including a gas, electricity, or water supply issue, ignition failure, an error code in the machine, a blocked pipe, or frozen pipe.
Calcification build up happens a lot and can cause damage to your water heater. Having a water softener put in could slow the build up. An additional solution is to have your water heater flushed twice a year with a descaling cleaner.
The majority of tankless water heaters are equipped with a screen that puts out an error code when there is an issue. There are a broad range of reasons why an error code may display.
