Standard tank type water heaters are big holding tanks which hold up to 80 gallons of water. They are tremendously insulated to ensure your water will stay nice and hot any time you you desire it.
Tank water heaters are generally dependable, though they sometimes have issues. Below are some frequently occurring 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 blown circuit breaker. The initial thing you should check is the fuse box.
If the circuit breaker is okay then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater might need replacing. On a gas water heater, the critical things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rust colored hot water might be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this remains unresolved, corrosion could progress and develop a leak in the water tank. Replacing an anode rod is a fairly simple procedure and it often extend the life of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is just discolored, but does not contain rust could be caused from scale build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.
Hot water that has an odor of rotten eggs or sulfur is likely caused from bacteria build up in the water heater.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank can be from several different problems. It could be related to a temperature and pressure valve, condensation, a leaking gasket, break down of the tank, or draining from the overflow pipe.
Water leaking from above the water heater might 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 might be blocked, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve might be malfunctioning, or the thermocouple requires changing.
Odd noises from your hot 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 sounds are benign, but it's still a smart idea to have it inspected.
If you experience a sudden drop in hot water pressure, it may be caused by calcium deposits in your pipes or faucets.
Tankless water heaters are the newest type of water heater. They are more energy efficient than their tank cousins, are more cost efficient to run and usually have a longer lifespan, but are more costly up front. They demand a lot less space and won't run out of hot water, but upon installation 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 common heating system, and may need larger gas pipes. You should make sure that your existing water lines can support a tankless heater.

Mineral build up happens a lot and can cause damage to your water heater. Putting in a water softener could slow the build up. An additional possible solution is to have your water heater flushed twice per year with a descaler.
The majority of tankless water heaters are equipped with a screen which displays an error code when there is an issue. There are a broad range of reasons why an error code may show up.
