Standard tank style water heaters are large holding tanks which contain between 30 and 80 gallons of water. They are greatly insulated to ensure your water will remain piping hot whenever you would like it.
Tank water heaters are normally dependable, however they occasionally have issues. Below are a few commonly occurring problems that affect standard tank style gas and electric water heaters.
The most common 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 a problem then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater might require replacement. On a gas water heater, the important things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rust colored hot water could be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this remains unresolved, corrosion could eventually cause further deterioration and develop a leak in the water tank. Changing out 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 simply discolored, but is not rusty may be due to scale build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.
Hot water that smells like rotten eggs or sulfur is likely caused by bacteria which has amassed inside the hot water tank.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank could be caused by a few problems. It could be caused by 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 may be caused by the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a faulty 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 might be defective, or the thermocouple requires changing.
Odd noises from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises frequently occur when there is a buildup of sediment in the bottom of the water heater tank. Hissing could be a sign that there is a leak or condensation. Most sounds are benign, but it's still a good idea to have it checked.
If you experience a recent decrease in hot water pressure, it could be caused by sediment in your pipes or faucets.
