Standard tank models of water heaters are big holding tanks which house between 30 and 80 gallons of water. They are highly insulated to help make sure your water will continue to be piping hot whenever you you desire it.
Tank water heaters are usually able to be counted on, however they can have issues. Below are a few commonly occurring problems that affect standard tank type gas and electric water heaters.
The most typical reason there is not any hot water in the water heater is a fuse has tripped. The first thing you should evaluate 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 require replacement. On a gas water heater, the critical things to check 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 untreated, corrosion could cause further deterioration and result in a leak in the tank. Changing out an anode rod is a fairly easy process and it often extend the lifetime of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is only discolored, but isn't rusty might be caused by scale build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.
Hot water that smells like rotten eggs or sulfur likely is caused by bacteria build up inside the water heater.
A water leak from the base of the tank could be due to a few issues. It could be from 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 could be from the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a damaged 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 might be blocked, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve may be broken, or the thermocouple requires changing.
Weird noises from your 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 tank. Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. Most sounds are benign, but it's still a smart idea to have it inspected.
If you have a sudden decrease in hot water pressure, it might be caused by calcium build up in your pipes or faucets.
