Standard tank type water heaters are large holding tanks which store up to 80 gallons of water. They are greatly insulated to ensure your water will continue to be nice and hot any time you would like it.
Tank water heaters are generally able to be counted on, however they sometimes have problems. Below are a few commonly occurring 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 evaluate is the breaker box.
If the circuit breaker is not an issue then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater might need replacing. On a gas water heater, the key things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rust colored hot water can be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this is not treated, corrosion can progress and result in a leak in the tank. Replacing an anode rod is a fairly simple procedure and it may extend the lifetime of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is simply discolored, but is not rusty might be caused by hard water build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.
Hot water that smells like rotten eggs or sulfur is likely caused from bacteria build up in the hot water tank.
A water leak from the base of the tank might be from a number of problems. It could be caused by a temperature and pressure valve, condensation, a leaking gasket, corrosion 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 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 may be blocked, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve might be broken, or the thermocouple requires replacement.
Strange noises from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other sounds commonly happen when there is a buildup of sediment in the lower portion of the tank. Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. Most sounds are nothing serious, but it's still a smart idea to have it inspected.
If you experience a sudden decrease in hot water pressure, it could be caused by calcium build up in your pipes or faucets.
Tankless water heaters are the newest type of water heater. They are more power efficient than their tank cousins, are more cost efficient to run and generally last longer, but are more expensive initially. They require tremendously less space and won't run out of hot water, but at the start can require some extra attachments and re-plumbing or re-routing of gas and water lines.

A tankless water heater utilizes more gas than a common heater, and may need larger gas pipes. You also should verify that your existing water lines can accommodate a tankless heater.
One of the most commonly occurring issues in tankless water heaters is no hot water. This might be due to a number of things including a gas, electricity, or water supply issue, ignition failure, an error code in the unit, a blocked pipe, or frozen pipe.
Sediment build up happens frequently and can cause damage to your water heater. Putting in a water softener could slow the build up. Another possible solution is to have your water heater flushed twice a year with a descaling cleaner.
Most tankless water heaters have a screen that puts out an error code when there is a problem. There are a broad range of reasons why an error code may display.
