Standard tank style water heaters are large storage tanks which contain 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are immensely insulated to help make sure your water will stay nice and hot whenever you you desire it.
Tank water heaters are normally able to be counted on, though they occasionally have problems. Below are some common 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 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 be faulty. On a gas water heater, the key things to look at are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rust colored hot water might be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this remains unresolved, corrosion could eventually progress and result in a leak in the water tank. Replacing an anode rod is a relatively easy job and it could extend the life of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is only discolored, but isn't rusty might be caused by calcification build up on the heating element or sediment 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 tank.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank might be caused by a few issues. It could be from a temperature and pressure valve, condensation, a leaking gasket, break down 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 faulty 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 might be defective, or the thermocouple needs replacing.
Strange 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 bottom of the water heater. Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. Most noises are benign, but it's still a good idea to have it inspected.
If you experience a sudden reduction in hot water pressure, it may be caused by sediment in your pipes or faucets.

They are more energy efficient than their tank counterparts, are more cost efficient to run and generally have a longer life, but are more costly to purchase.
