Standard tank type water heaters are hefty storage tanks which hold 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are highly insulated to help make sure your water will remain nice and hot any time you would like it.
Tank water heaters are normally dependable, though they can have problems. Below are some commonly occurring 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 blown circuit breaker. The first thing you should evaluate is the fuse box.
If the fuse box is not an issue then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater might require replacement. On a gas water heater, the important things to look at are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rusty hot water might be caused by corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If left untreated, corrosion could eventually progress and develop a leak in the tank. Changing out an anode rod is a fairly simple job and it could extend the lifetime of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is simply discolored, but not rusty is likely caused by scale 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 growth in the water heater tank.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank can be caused by a number of issues. 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 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 may be blocked, there may be air in the gas line, the gas valve could be malfunctioning, or the thermocouple needs replacing.
Odd noises from your water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises frequently occur when there is a buildup of sediment in the lower portion of the water heater tank. Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. The majority of sounds are nothing to worry about, but it's still a good idea to have it inspected.
If you experience a recent drop in hot water pressure, it could be caused by calcium build up in your pipes or faucets.
Tankless water heaters are the most recent type of water heater. They are more energy efficient than their tank counterparts, are more cost efficient to run and tend to have a longer life, but are more costly up front. They require tremendously less space and do not run out of hot water, but in the beginning can require some extra accessories and re-plumbing or re-routing of gas and water lines.

A tankless water heater needs more gas than a typical heating system, and may need the installation of bigger gas lines. You also should make sure that your existing water piping can accommodate a tankless heater.
One of the most common issues in tankless water heaters is no hot water. This might be caused by a variety of issues including a gas, electricity, or water supply issue, ignition failure, an error code in the machine, a clogged pipe, or frozen pipe.
Sediment build up happens a lot and can cause damage to your water heater. Installing a water softener could slow the build up. An additional possible solution is to have your water heater flushed every six months with a descaler.
Most tankless water heaters are equipped with a screen that displays an error code when there is a problem. There are a broad range of reasons why an error code may display.
