Standard tank models of water heaters are big holding tanks which hold up to 80 gallons of water. They are immensely insulated to ensure your water will stay piping hot any time you would like it.
Tank water heaters are usually dependable, though they sometimes have problems. These are some common problems that affect standard tank type gas and electric water heaters.
The most frequent cause of no hot water in the water heater is a fuse has tripped. The initial thing you should evaluate is the breaker box.
If the fuse box is not an issue then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater could be faulty. On a gas water heater, the critical 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 untreated, corrosion could 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 life of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is just discolored, but is not rusty may be caused from scale build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.
Hot water that smells like rotten eggs or sulfur is usually caused from bacteria growth in the water heater tank.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank can be caused by several different 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 may be caused by the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a faulty 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 could be blocked, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve might be malfunctioning, or the thermocouple needs changing.
Odd noises from your water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises commonly occur when there is a buildup of sediment in the bottom of the tank. Hissing could be a sign that there is a leak or condensation. Most sounds are nothing serious, but it's still a wise idea to have it inspected.
If you have a recent drop in hot water pressure, it may be caused by calcium build up in your pipes or faucets.
