Standard tank style water heaters are hefty storage tanks which hold 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are tremendously insulated to help make sure your water will continue to be nice and hot any time you want it.
Tank water heaters are generally able to be counted on, though they sometimes have issues. Below are a few common problems that affect standard tank type gas and electric water heaters.
The most typical reason there is no hot water in the water heater is a fuse has tripped. The first thing one should evaluate is the breaker box.
If the circuit breaker is not an issue then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater might need replacing. On a gas water heater, the key things to look at are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rust colored hot water could be caused by corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this remains unresolved, corrosion could eventually progress and develop a leak in the water tank. Replacing 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 does not contain rust is likely due to calcification build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.
Hot water which has an odor of rotten eggs or sulfur is usually caused from bacteria build up in the hot water tank.
A water leak from the base of the tank might be caused by a few problems. It could be caused by 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 may be due to 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 might be blocked, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve may be malfunctioning, or the thermocouple needs replacement.
Odd sounds from your water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other sounds commonly occur when there is a buildup of sediment in the bottom of the water heater. Hissing could be a sign that there is a leak or condensation. Most sounds are nothing to worry about, but it's still a wise idea to have it inspected.
If you experience a sudden drop in hot water pressure, it might be caused by calcium deposits in your pipes or faucets.
Tankless water heaters are the newest type of water heater. They are more power efficient than their tank counterparts, are more economical to run and usually last longer, but are more costly to purchase. They demand a lot less space and don't run out of hot water, but in the beginning can require some extra equipment and re-plumbing or re-routing of gas and water lines.

A tankless water heater uses more gas than a typical heating system, and may require the installation of wider diameter gas piping. You should verify that your current water piping can support a tankless heater.
One of the most common complaints in tankless water heaters is no hot water. This could be due to a number of issues including a gas, electricity, or water supply issue, ignition failure, an error code in the machine, a clogged pipe, or frozen pipe.
Sediment build up happens a lot and can cause damage to your water heater. Installing a water softener could slow the build up. Another solution is to have your water heater flushed twice a year with a descaler.
The majority of tankless water heaters have a screen which puts out an error code when there is an issue. There are a broad range of reasons why an error code may display.
