Standard tank type water heaters are big holding tanks which contain up to 80 gallons of water. They are tremendously insulated to help make sure your water will stay piping hot any time you want it.
Tank water heaters are normally able to be counted on, however they sometimes have issues. Below are a few common issues that affect standard tank style gas and electric water heaters.
The most frequent cause of no hot water in the water heater is a blown circuit breaker. The initial thing you should check is the breaker box.
If the circuit breaker is fine then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater might be faulty. On a gas water heater, the critical 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 this remains unresolved, corrosion could progress and result in a leak in the water tank. Replacing an anode rod is a fairly easy process and it could extend the lifetime of your water heater by a few years.
Hot water that is only discolored, but does not contain rust may be due to scale 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 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 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 clogged, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve may be malfunctioning, or the thermocouple requires replacement.
Strange sounds 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. Most sounds are benign, but it's still a wise idea to have it inspected.
If you experience a recent drop in hot water pressure, it could be caused by calcium build up in your pipes or faucets.

They are more power efficient than their tank cousins, cost less to run and generally have a longer lifespan, but are more expensive to purchase. They need a lot less space and don'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.
