Standard tank models of water heaters are big holding tanks which contain up to 80 gallons of water. They are tremendously insulated to help make sure your water will stay piping hot any time you want it.
Tank water heaters are generally dependable, though they sometimes have problems. Below are a few commonly occurring issues that affect standard tank type gas and electric water heaters.
The most frequent reason there isn't any hot water in the water heater is a fuse has tripped. The first thing one should check is the fuse box.
If the fuse box is okay then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater might need replacement. On a gas water heater, the key things to look at are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rust colored hot water might be caused by corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If left unresolved, corrosion could eventually progress and develop a leak in the water tank. Changing out an anode rod is a relatively easy process and it could extend the lifetime of your water heater by a few years.
Hot water that is just discolored, but isn't rusty is likely caused by scale build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.
Hot water that smells like rotten eggs or sulfur is usually caused by bacteria which has amassed inside the hot water tank.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank can be due to a few problems. 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 could be due to the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a damaged 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 might be blocked, there may be air in the gas line, the gas valve may be defective, or the thermocouple requires changing.
Strange noises from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other sounds 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 noises are nothing serious, but it's still a smart idea to have it inspected.
If you experience a recent drop in hot water pressure, it might 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 economical to run and tend to last longer, but are more costly to purchase. They demand a lot less space and don't run out of hot water, but initially can need some extra apparatus and re-plumbing or re-routing of gas and water lines.

A tankless water heater utilizes more gas than a typical heating system, and may need wider diameter gas pipes. You should verify that your current water piping can support a tankless heater.
One of the most frequent problems in tankless water heaters is no hot water. This might be caused by a number of issues including a gas, electricity, or water supply problem, ignition failure, an error code in the unit, a obstructed pipe, or frozen pipe.
Mineral build up happens frequently and can cause damage to your water heater. Having a water softener installed could slow the build up. An additional possible solution is to have your water heater flushed twice per year with a descaler.
Most tankless water heaters are equipped with a screen that puts out an error code when there is a problem. There are a wide range of reasons why an error code may appear.
