Standard tank style water heaters are hefty storage tanks which hold up to 80 gallons of water. They are immensely insulated to ensure your water will remain nice and hot any time you you desire it.
Tank water heaters are normally dependable, though they sometimes have issues. Below are some common problems 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 fuse has tripped. 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 require replacement. On a gas water heater, the important things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rusty hot water can be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If left untreated, corrosion can progress and result in a leak in the water tank. Replacing an anode rod is a relatively easy job and it often extend the lifetime of your water heater by a few years.
Hot water that is only discolored, but does not contain rust might be caused from 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 by bacteria growth in the water heater tank.
A water leak from the base of the tank could be caused by 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 above the water heater could be caused by 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 clogged, there may be air in the gas line, the gas valve could be defective, or the thermocouple needs replacing.
Strange sounds from your water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises commonly 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 benign, but it's still a wise idea to have it checked.
If you have a sudden drop in hot water pressure, it might be caused by calcium deposits in your pipes or faucets.
