Standard tank type water heaters are large storage tanks which contain between 30 and 80 gallons of water. They are highly insulated to ensure your water will stay piping hot any time you you desire it.
Tank water heaters are quite dependable, however they sometimes have issues. These are some common problems that affect standard tank type gas and electric water heaters.
The most frequent reason there is not any hot water in the water heater is a blown fuse. The initial thing you should check is the breaker box.
If the fuse box is fine then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater might require replacement. On a gas water heater, the critical things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rust colored hot water could be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this remains unresolved, corrosion will eventually progress and develop a leak in the tank. Replacing an anode rod is a fairly easy job and it may extend the lifetime of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is simply discolored, but not rusty is likely caused by hard water build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.
Hot water that has an odor of rotten eggs or sulfur generally is caused from bacteria build up inside the water heater tank.
A water leak from the base of the tank might be due to a number of issues. It could be related to a temperature and pressure valve, condensation, a leaking gasket, break down 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 malfunctioning 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 may be defective, or the thermocouple requires replacement.
Strange noises from your water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises frequently take place when there is a buildup of sediment in the bottom of the water heater tank. Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. The majority of sounds are nothing to worry about, but it's still a wise idea to have it checked.
If you have a recent reduction in hot water pressure, it may be caused by calcium build up in your pipes or faucets.

They are more power efficient than their tank cousins, are more cost efficient to run and tend to have a longer lifespan, but are more costly to purchase.
