Standard tank style water heaters are hefty storage tanks which contain up to 80 gallons of water. They are greatly insulated to help make sure your water will remain nice and hot any time you want it.
Tank water heaters are normally able to be counted on, though they occasionally have problems. Below are a few frequently occurring issues that affect standard tank style gas and electric water heaters.
The most typical cause of no hot water in the water heater is a blown circuit breaker. The first thing one should check is the fuse box.
If the circuit breaker is not an issue then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater may need replacement. On a gas water heater, the critical things to look at 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 this is not treated, corrosion can cause further deterioration and develop a leak in the tank. Changing out an anode rod is a fairly simple process and it could extend the life of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is just discolored, but isn't rusty may be due to scale build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.
Hot water which smells like rotten eggs or sulfur is generally caused from bacteria growth in the hot water tank.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank might be from 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 the top of the water heater could be from the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a malfunctioning temperature and pressure valve, or a loose connection.
There are several 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 malfunctioning, or the thermocouple requires replacement.
Weird noises from your water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other sounds frequently happen when there is a buildup of sediment in the lower portion of the water heater tank. Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. The majority of noises are nothing serious, but it's still a good idea to have it inspected.
If you have a recent drop in hot water pressure, it may be caused by sediment in your pipes or faucets.
Tankless water heaters are the most recent type of water heater. They are more energy efficient than their tank cousins, are more cost efficient to run and usually have a longer life, but are more costly to purchase. They require tremendously less space and do not run out of hot water, but at the start can require some extra apparatus and re-plumbing or re-routing of gas and water lines.

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. Another solution is to have your water heater flushed every six months with a descaling cleaner.
