Standard tank style water heaters are big holding tanks which hold up to 80 gallons of water. They are tremendously insulated to ensure your water will stay nice and hot any time you want it.
Tank water heaters are quite dependable, though they sometimes have issues. Below are some frequently occurring issues that affect standard tank style gas and electric water heaters.
The most frequent reason there is not any hot water in the water heater is a circuit breaker has tripped. The first 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 require replacement. On a gas water heater, the important things to look at are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rusty hot water could be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If left untreated, corrosion will eventually progress and result in a leak in the water tank. Replacing an anode rod is a relatively uncomplicated process and it may extend the lifetime of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is only discolored, but not rusty could be caused from scale build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.
Hot water which smells like rotten eggs or sulfur is usually caused by bacteria which has amassed in the water heater tank.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank might be from a number of 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 above the water heater could be due to 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 might be broken, or the thermocouple needs changing.
Odd sounds from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other sounds commonly occur when there is a buildup of sediment in the lower portion of the water heater. Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. The majority of sounds 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 might be caused by sediment in your pipes or faucets.
