Standard tank type water heaters are big storage tanks which hold from 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are immensely insulated to ensure your water will stay nice and hot whenever you want it.
Tank water heaters are quite able to be counted on, though they can have issues. Below are a few frequently occurring problems that affect standard tank type gas and electric water heaters.
The most frequent reason there isn't any hot water in the water heater is a blown fuse. The first thing you should evaluate is the breaker box.
If the fuse box is not a problem then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater might need replacement. On a gas water heater, the critical 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 remains untreated, corrosion can cause further deterioration and result in a leak in the tank. Changing out an anode rod is a fairly uncomplicated job and it could extend the lifetime of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is simply discolored, but isn't rusty might be due to scale build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.
Hot water which has an odor of rotten eggs or sulfur is usually caused from bacteria build up inside the water heater tank.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank could be caused by several different problems. It could be caused by a temperature and pressure valve, condensation, a leaking gasket, break down of the tank, or draining from the overflow pipe.
Water leaking from the top of the water heater may be due to 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 may be clogged, there may be air in the gas line, the gas valve may be defective, or the thermocouple needs replacement.
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 lower portion of the water heater. Hissing could be a sign that there is a leak or condensation. Most sounds are benign, but it's still a good idea to have it inspected.
If you have a sudden drop in hot water pressure, it might be caused by calcium deposits in your pipes or faucets.
Tankless water heaters are the most recent type of water heater. They are more energy efficient than their tank counterparts, are more cost efficient to run and usually last longer, but are more costly up front.
