Standard tank models of water heaters are hefty holding tanks which store 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are highly insulated to help make sure your water will continue to be piping hot whenever you you desire it.
Tank water heaters are usually dependable, though they sometimes have problems. These are some commonly occurring problems that affect standard tank type gas and electric water heaters.
The most frequent cause of no hot water in the water heater is a blown fuse. The initial thing you should check is the fuse box.
If the circuit breaker is fine then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater may need replacement. On a gas water heater, the critical 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 untreated, corrosion will eventually progress and develop a leak in the water tank. Replacing an anode rod is a relatively uncomplicated process and it could extend the lifetime of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is simply discolored, but does not contain rust could be due to hard water build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.
Hot water which has an odor of rotten eggs or sulfur is generally caused from bacteria growth in the hot water tank.
A water leak from the base of the tank might be caused by a few issues. It could be caused by a temperature and pressure valve, condensation, a leaking gasket, deterioration of the tank, or draining from the overflow pipe.
Water leaking from the top of the water heater could be caused by 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 might be air in the gas line, the gas valve could be defective, or the thermocouple requires replacing.
Odd noises from your water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other sounds commonly take place when there is a buildup of sediment in the bottom of the tank. Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. Most sounds are benign, but it's still a wise idea to have it checked.
If you experience a sudden reduction 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 power efficient than their tank cousins, are more economical to run and usually last longer, but are more expensive up front. They need a lot less space and never run out of hot water, but in the beginning can require some extra apparatus and re-plumbing or re-routing of gas and water lines.
