Standard tank models of water heaters are hefty holding tanks which contain from 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are tremendously insulated to ensure your water will continue to be nice and hot any time you would like it.
Tank water heaters are quite able to be counted on, though they occasionally have problems. Below are a few frequently occurring issues 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 fuse. The initial thing you should evaluate is the breaker box.
If the circuit breaker is okay 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 might be caused by corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this remains untreated, corrosion will eventually cause further deterioration and result in a leak in the water tank. Replacing an anode rod is a fairly simple job and it may extend the life of your water heater by a few years.
Hot water that is only discolored, but not rusty is likely due to calcification build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.
Hot water that smells like rotten eggs or sulfur is generally caused by bacteria build up in the water heater tank.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank might be from a few 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 might be from 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 might be malfunctioning, or the thermocouple requires replacement.
Weird sounds from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other sounds frequently happen when there is a buildup of sediment in the lower portion of the tank. Hissing could be a sign that there is a leak or condensation. The majority of sounds are benign, but it's still a good idea to have it checked.
If you experience a sudden reduction in hot water pressure, it could be caused by sediment in your pipes or faucets.
Tankless water heaters are the most recent type of water heater. They are more power efficient than their tank counterparts, are more cost efficient to run and usually have a longer lifespan, but are more expensive initially. They require a lot less space and do not run out of hot water, but initially can require some extra apparatus and re-plumbing or re-routing of gas and water lines.
Our experienced plumbers can assist with installing a new tankless water heater system or updating and existing system. It's important find a pro who is able to follow all local plumbing codes for Allen Park, MI
A tankless water heater uses more gas than a common heater, and may require bigger gas lines. You will also need to make sure that your current water lines can support a tankless heater.
One of the most commonly occurring problems in tankless water heaters is no hot water. This could be caused by a variety of things including a gas, electricity, or water supply problem, ignition failure, an error code in the machine, a blocked pipe, or frozen pipe.
Sediment build up happens a lot and can cause damage to your water heater. Putting in a water softener could slow the build up. Another solution is to have your water heater flushed every six months with a descaler.
Most tankless water heaters are equipped with a screen which displays an error code when there is a problem. There are a wide range of reasons why an error code may appear.
