Standard tank style water heaters are hefty holding tanks which contain between 30 and 80 gallons of water. They are highly insulated to help make sure your water will stay piping hot any time you would like it.
Tank water heaters are quite dependable, though they sometimes have issues. Below are a few frequently occurring issues that affect standard tank type gas and electric water heaters.
The most common reason there is not any hot water in the water heater is a blown fuse. The initial thing you should check is the fuse box.
If the fuse box 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 look at 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 left unresolved, corrosion can progress and result in a leak in the tank. Replacing an anode rod is a fairly uncomplicated procedure and it could extend the life of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is just discolored, but does not contain rust is likely caused by scale build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.
Hot water which smells like rotten eggs or sulfur likely is caused from bacteria which has amassed inside the hot water tank.
A water leak from the base of the tank could be caused by a few problems. It could be from a temperature and pressure valve, condensation, a leaking gasket, corrosion of the tank, or draining from the overflow pipe.
Water leaking from the top of the water heater might 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 may be clogged, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve could be broken, or the thermocouple requires changing.
Odd noises from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises frequently happen when there is a buildup of sediment in the bottom of the water heater tank. Hissing could be a sign that there is a leak or condensation. Most noises are benign, but it's still a wise idea to have it checked.
If you experience a recent reduction in hot water pressure, it could be caused by sediment in your pipes or faucets.
Tankless water heaters are the most recent type of water heater. They are more power efficient than their tank counterparts, cost less to run and tend to last longer, but are more expensive up front. They demand a lot less space and do not run out of hot water, but in the beginning can need some extra equipment and re-plumbing or re-routing of gas and water lines.

A tankless water heater uses more gas than a typical heating system, and may require the installation of wider diameter gas piping. You will also need to verify that your current water piping can accommodate a tankless heater.
One of the most common complaints 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 machine, a blocked pipe, or frozen pipe.
Sediment build up happens a lot and can cause damage to your water heater. Having a water softener put in could slow the build up. An additional solution is to have your water heater flushed twice a year with a descaling cleaner.
Most tankless water heaters are equipped with a screen that displays an error code when there is a problem. There are a wide range of reasons why an error code may display.
