Standard tank style water heaters are big storage tanks which hold between 30 and 80 gallons of water. They are highly insulated to help make sure your water will remain nice and hot any time you want it.
Tank water heaters are normally able to be counted on, however they can have issues. Below are a few common issues that affect standard tank style gas and electric water heaters.
The most common reason there is not any hot water in the water heater is a circuit breaker has tripped. The initial thing one should check is the breaker box.
If the circuit breaker is not a problem then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater could be faulty. On a gas water heater, the important things to look at are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rust colored hot water can be caused by corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If left untreated, corrosion will eventually cause further deterioration and result in a leak in the water tank. Replacing an anode rod is a relatively uncomplicated job and it could extend the life of your water heater by a few years.
Hot water that is just discolored, but does not contain rust is likely due to scale build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.
Hot water which smells like rotten eggs or sulfur is likely caused by bacteria build up in the water heater.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank can be due to a number of issues. It could be from a temperature and pressure valve, condensation, a leaking gasket, corrosion of the tank, or draining from the overflow pipe.
Water leaking from above the water heater could 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 could be clogged, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve may be malfunctioning, or the thermocouple needs changing.
Strange sounds from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises commonly 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. Most sounds are nothing serious, but it's still a good idea to have it checked.
If you experience a sudden drop in hot water pressure, it might be caused by calcium build up in your pipes or faucets.
