Standard tank style water heaters are hefty holding tanks which store between 30 and 80 gallons of water. They are greatly insulated to ensure your water will stay nice and hot any time you you desire it.
Tank water heaters are normally able to be counted on, though they sometimes have problems. Below are a few commonly occurring problems that affect standard tank type gas and electric water heaters.
The most typical cause of no hot water in the water heater is a circuit breaker has tripped. The first thing you should evaluate is the breaker box.
If the circuit breaker is fine then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater could need replacing. On a gas water heater, the key things to check 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 unresolved, corrosion can cause further deterioration and result in a leak in the tank. Replacing an anode rod is a fairly uncomplicated procedure and it often extend the lifetime of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is simply discolored, but does not contain rust is likely caused from hard water build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.
Hot water that has an odor of rotten eggs or sulfur likely is caused from bacteria which has amassed in the water heater tank.
A water leak from the base of the tank can be due to a few 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 might be caused by 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 might be clogged, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve might be broken, or the thermocouple requires changing.
Odd noises from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises commonly take place when there is a buildup of sediment in the lower portion of the water heater. Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. Most sounds are nothing to worry about, but it's still a good idea to have it checked.
If you have a sudden drop in hot water pressure, it may be caused by calcium deposits in your pipes or faucets.
Tankless water heaters are the newest type of water heater. They are more power efficient than their tank cousins, cost less to run and tend to have a longer life, but are more costly up front. They demand tremendously less space and never run out of hot water, but at the start can need some extra equipment and re-plumbing or re-routing of gas and water lines.
