Standard tank style water heaters are hefty storage tanks which hold up to 80 gallons of water. They are highly insulated to ensure your water will remain piping hot any time you would like it.
Tank water heaters are generally dependable, though they sometimes have problems. Below are some frequently occurring problems that affect standard tank style gas and electric water heaters.
The most typical reason there is not any hot water in the water heater is a blown fuse. The first thing one should evaluate is the breaker box.
If the fuse box is not an issue then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater might be faulty. On a gas water heater, the important things to look at 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 is not treated, corrosion could eventually cause further deterioration and develop a leak in the tank. Replacing an anode rod is a relatively easy procedure and it could extend the life of your water heater by a few years.
Hot water that is just discolored, but isn't rusty might be caused from hard water build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.
Hot water which smells like rotten eggs or sulfur likely is caused by bacteria build up in the hot water tank.
A water leak from the base of the tank could 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 might be from the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a damaged 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 blocked, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve may be broken, or the thermocouple needs replacement.
Strange noises from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other sounds frequently take place when there is a buildup of sediment in the bottom of the water heater. Hissing could be a sign that there is a leak or condensation. Most noises are nothing serious, but it's still a good idea to have it checked.
If you have a recent reduction 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 power efficient than their tank counterparts, cost less to run and usually have a longer lifespan, but are more expensive up front. They demand a lot less space and won't run out of hot water, but initially can require some extra apparatus 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 need bigger gas piping. You will also need to make sure 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 could be due to a number of things including a gas, electricity, or water supply problem, ignition failure, an error code in the machine, a obstructed pipe, or frozen pipe.
Sediment build up happens frequently and can cause damage to your water heater. Having a water softener installed could slow the build up. Another possible solution is to have your water heater flushed twice a year with a descaler.
The majority of tankless water heaters are equipped with a screen which displays an error code when there is an issue. There are a wide variety of reasons why an error code may show up.
