Standard tank models of water heaters are large holding tanks which house 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are highly insulated to help make sure your water will continue to be nice and hot whenever you you desire it.
Tank water heaters are quite dependable, though they sometimes have problems. Below are a few common problems that affect standard tank style gas and electric water heaters.
The most frequent reason there is no hot water in the water heater is a fuse has tripped. The first thing you should evaluate is the fuse box.
If the circuit breaker is okay then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater could 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 tank. Replacing an anode rod is a relatively uncomplicated procedure and it may extend the life of your water heater by a few years.
Hot water that is just discolored, but not rusty could be due to calcification build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.
Hot water that has an odor of rotten eggs or sulfur likely is caused from bacteria which has amassed inside the water heater.
A water leak from the base of the tank can be from a number of problems. It could be from 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 could be caused by the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a faulty 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 clogged, there may be air in the gas line, the gas valve could be defective, or the thermocouple requires changing.
Weird sounds from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other sounds frequently occur 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 benign, but it's still a good idea to have it checked.
If you have a sudden reduction in hot water pressure, it may be caused by calcium deposits in your pipes or faucets.
