Standard tank models of water heaters are big storage tanks which hold between 30 and 80 gallons of water. They are immensely insulated to help make sure your water will remain piping hot whenever you you desire it.
Tank water heaters are quite dependable, though they can have problems. Below are some commonly occurring problems that affect standard tank style gas and electric water heaters.
The most frequent reason there is not any hot water in the water heater is a fuse has tripped. The first thing you 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 be faulty. On a gas water heater, the important 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 this remains untreated, corrosion can progress and develop a leak in the tank. Replacing an anode rod is a relatively simple procedure and it often extend the life of your water heater by a few years.
Hot water that is only discolored, but not rusty might be caused by 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 which has amassed inside the hot water tank.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank could be from several different problems. It could be related to 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 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 might be blocked, there may be air in the gas line, the gas valve could be defective, or the thermocouple needs replacing.
Weird noises from your water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other sounds commonly take place when there is a buildup of sediment in the lower portion of the water heater. Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. Most noises are benign, but it's still a wise idea to have it checked.
If you experience a sudden reduction in hot water pressure, it might be caused by calcium build up in your pipes or faucets.
Tankless water heaters are the newest type of water heater. They are more power efficient than their tank cousins, are more cost efficient to run and generally have a longer life, but are more costly up front. They require tremendously less space and won't run out of hot water, but in the beginning can need some extra apparatus and re-plumbing or re-routing of gas and water lines.

A tankless water heater needs more gas than a typical heating system, and may require wider diameter gas pipes. You will want to make sure that your existing water lines can accommodate a tankless heater.
