Standard tank style water heaters are hefty holding tanks which store up to 80 gallons of water. They are tremendously insulated to ensure your water will stay piping hot whenever you you desire it.
Tank water heaters are quite dependable, however they can have issues. These are a few commonly occurring issues that affect standard tank type gas and electric water heaters.
The most common reason there is no hot water in the water heater is a blown fuse. The first thing one should check is the fuse box.
If the circuit breaker is fine then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater could be faulty. On a gas water heater, the important things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rust colored hot water can be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this is not treated, corrosion could eventually cause further deterioration and develop a leak in the water tank. Changing out an anode rod is a relatively simple process and it could extend the lifetime of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is simply discolored, but is not rusty could be due to calcification build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.
Hot water which smells like rotten eggs or sulfur generally is caused from bacteria which has amassed in the hot water tank.
A water leak from the base of the tank can be from a few issues. 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 from the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a malfunctioning temperature and pressure valve, or a loose connection.
There are several 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 broken, or the thermocouple requires replacement.
Odd sounds from your water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises frequently happen when there is a buildup of sediment in the lower portion of the tank. Hissing could be a sign 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 recent reduction in hot water pressure, it may be caused by sediment in your pipes or faucets.
Tankless water heaters are the most recent breed of water heater. They are more power efficient than their tank cousins, cost less to run and tend to have a longer lifespan, but are more expensive to purchase.

A tankless water heater uses more gas than a typical heating system, and may need larger gas piping. You will also need to verify that your existing water pipes can accommodate a tankless heater.
