Standard tank style water heaters are big storage tanks which hold 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are highly insulated to ensure your water will remain piping hot whenever you would like it.
Tank water heaters are quite dependable, however they sometimes have problems. Below are some frequently occurring problems that affect standard tank type gas and electric water heaters.
The most typical reason there isn't any hot water in the water heater is a circuit breaker has tripped. 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 require replacement. On a gas water heater, the key things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.

Hot water that smells like rotten eggs or sulfur generally is caused from bacteria build up in the water heater tank.
A water leak from the base of the tank might be caused by several different problems. It could be from a temperature and pressure valve, condensation, a leaking gasket, deterioration of the tank, or draining from the overflow pipe.
Water leaking from the top of the water heater could be from the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a malfunctioning 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 might be clogged, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve may be defective, or the thermocouple needs replacement.
Strange noises from your water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises frequently take place when there is a buildup of sediment in the lower portion of the tank. Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. The majority of noises are nothing serious, but it's still a wise idea to have it inspected.
If you experience a sudden reduction in hot water pressure, it might be caused by calcium deposits in your pipes or faucets.
