Standard tank models of water heaters are big storage tanks which hold between 30 and 80 gallons of water. They are highly insulated to help make sure your water will continue to be nice and hot whenever you want it.
Tank water heaters are generally able to be counted on, though they sometimes have problems. Below are some common 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 blown circuit breaker. The initial thing one should evaluate is the fuse box.
If the circuit breaker is okay then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater could need replacement. On a gas water heater, the key things to look at are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rusty hot water can be caused by corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this remains untreated, corrosion could eventually progress and develop a leak in the tank. Changing out an anode rod is a fairly easy job and it may extend the lifetime of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is simply discolored, but not rusty may be caused from hard water build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.
Hot water that has an odor of rotten eggs or sulfur generally is caused from bacteria build up in the water heater.
A water leak from the base of the tank can be caused by several different issues. It could be related to a temperature and pressure valve, condensation, a leaking gasket, deterioration of the tank, or draining from the overflow pipe.
Water leaking from the top of 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 several reasons why a pilot will not light or stay lit. The pilot light tube could be blocked, there may be air in the gas line, the gas valve may be malfunctioning, or the thermocouple requires replacing.
Strange sounds 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 lower portion of the tank. Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. Most sounds are nothing to worry about, but it's still a good idea to have it checked.
If you have a recent decrease in hot water pressure, it might be caused by calcium deposits in your pipes or faucets.
Tankless water heaters are the most recent breed of water heater. They are more energy efficient than their tank cousins, cost less to run and tend to have a longer life, but are more expensive initially. They require much less less space and do not run out of hot water, but upon installation can need some extra attachments and re-plumbing or re-routing of gas and water lines.
Our skilled plumbers can help with putting in a new tankless water heater system or updating and existing system. It's important find a pro who is able to follow all local plumbing codes for Mcallen, TX
A tankless water heater utilizes more gas than a typical heater, and may require wider diameter gas pipes. You should make sure that your current water piping can support a tankless heater.
One of the most common complaints in tankless water heaters is no hot water. This might be caused by a number of things including a gas, electricity, or water supply problem, ignition failure, an error code in the machine, a blocked pipe, or frozen pipe.
Mineral build up happens a lot and can cause damage to your water heater. Putting in a water softener could slow the build up. An additional solution is to have your water heater flushed twice per year with a descaler.
The majority of tankless water heaters have a screen that displays an error code when there is a problem. There are a broad variety of reasons why an error code may show up.
