Standard tank models of water heaters are hefty holding tanks which contain from 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are immensely insulated to ensure your water will remain piping hot any time you want it.
Tank water heaters are generally able to be counted on, however they can have issues. Below are a few commonly occurring issues that affect standard tank type gas and electric water heaters.
The most common cause of no hot water in the water heater is a blown fuse. The initial thing you should check is the fuse box.
If the fuse box is not an issue then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater could require replacement. On a gas water heater, the key things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rusty hot water can be caused by corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this remains unresolved, corrosion will eventually progress and develop a leak in the water tank. Replacing an anode rod is a relatively simple procedure and it could extend the life of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is just discolored, but is not rusty is likely caused from calcification build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.
Hot water that smells like rotten eggs or sulfur is usually caused from bacteria build up in the water heater.
A water leak from the base of the tank can 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 damaged 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 could be defective, or the thermocouple requires changing.
Strange sounds from your water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other sounds frequently take place when there is a buildup of sediment in the lower portion of the water heater. Hissing could be a sign that there is a leak or condensation. Most sounds are nothing serious, but it's still a smart idea to have it checked.
If you have a sudden decrease in hot water pressure, it may be caused by sediment in your pipes or faucets.
Tankless water heaters are the newest breed of water heater. They are more power efficient than their tank counterparts, are more economical to run and usually have a longer life, but are more expensive up front. They need much less less space and do not run out of hot water, but upon installation can require some extra equipment and re-plumbing or re-routing of gas and water lines.

Sediment build up happens frequently and can cause damage to your water heater. Having a water softener put in could slow the build up. Another possible solution is to have your water heater flushed twice per year with a descaler.
