Standard tank type water heaters are hefty holding tanks which store from 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are greatly insulated to ensure your water will stay piping hot any time you would like it.
Tank water heaters are usually dependable, though they can have issues. Below are a few common problems that affect standard tank style gas and electric water heaters.
The most common cause of no hot water in the water heater is a blown fuse. The first thing one should check is the breaker box.
If the fuse box is okay then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater may need replacement. On a gas water heater, the key 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 this remains unresolved, corrosion could progress and result in a leak in the tank. Replacing an anode rod is a fairly simple job and it may extend the life of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is simply discolored, but does not contain rust could be caused by hard water build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.
Hot water which has an odor of rotten eggs or sulfur is generally caused from bacteria which has amassed in the hot water tank.
A water leak from the base of the tank could be caused by a number of problems. It could be related to 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 due to the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a faulty 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 could be clogged, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve could be malfunctioning, or the thermocouple needs replacing.
Strange sounds from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises commonly happen when there is a buildup of sediment in the bottom of the tank. Hissing could indicate 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 experience a recent decrease in hot water pressure, it may be caused by calcium build up in your pipes or faucets.
