Standard tank style water heaters are hefty storage tanks which house up to 80 gallons of water. They are tremendously insulated to ensure your water will remain piping hot any time you would like it.
Tank water heaters are generally able to be counted on, though they sometimes have issues. Below are a few common issues that affect standard tank style gas and electric water heaters.
The most typical reason there is not any hot water in the water heater is a blown circuit breaker. The first thing you should evaluate is the fuse box.
If the circuit breaker is not an issue then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater may require replacement. On a gas water heater, the key 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 left untreated, corrosion could eventually cause further deterioration and result in a leak in the tank. Changing out an anode rod is a fairly uncomplicated process and it may extend the lifetime of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is just discolored, but is not rusty may be caused from scale build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.
Hot water which smells like rotten eggs or sulfur generally is caused from bacteria which has amassed inside the hot water tank.
A water leak from the base of the tank can be from a number of issues. It could be caused by a temperature and pressure valve, condensation, a leaking gasket, break down of the tank, or draining from the overflow pipe.
Water leaking from the top of the water heater may be due to the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a faulty 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 might be air in the gas line, the gas valve could be malfunctioning, or the thermocouple requires changing.
Strange sounds from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises frequently take place when there is a buildup of sediment in the bottom of the water heater. Hissing could be a sign that there is a leak or condensation. The majority of noises are nothing serious, but it's still a wise idea to have it inspected.
If you have a recent decrease in hot water pressure, it could be caused by sediment in your pipes or faucets.
Tankless water heaters are the most recent type of water heater. They are more energy efficient than their tank cousins, cost less to run and usually last longer, but are more expensive to purchase. They need tremendously less space and don't run out of hot water, but upon installation can need some extra accessories and re-plumbing or re-routing of gas and water lines.

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

Calcification build up happens a lot and can cause damage to your water heater. Having a water softener put in could slow the build up. An additional possible solution is to have your water heater flushed every six months with a descaling cleaner.
The majority of tankless water heaters are equipped with a screen which displays an error code when there is a problem. There are a broad range of reasons why an error code may display.
