Standard tank style water heaters are large holding tanks which hold from 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are greatly insulated to ensure your water will remain nice and hot any time you want it.
Tank water heaters are usually dependable, however they sometimes have problems. Below are some common issues that affect standard tank type gas and electric water heaters.
The most common reason there is not any hot water in the water heater is a blown circuit breaker. The initial thing one should check is the fuse box.
If the circuit breaker is okay then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater could require replacement. On a gas water heater, the important things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rusty hot water might be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If left unresolved, corrosion will eventually progress and result in a leak in the tank. Changing out an anode rod is a relatively simple process and it may extend the life of your water heater by a few years.
Hot water that is simply discolored, but not rusty might be due to hard water build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.
Hot water which smells like rotten eggs or sulfur is generally caused from bacteria growth inside the water heater tank.
A water leak from the base of the tank can be due to a few different problems. It could be caused by a temperature and pressure valve, condensation, a leaking gasket, corrosion of the tank, or draining from the overflow pipe.
Water leaking from the top of the water heater could be from 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 might be blocked, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve could be malfunctioning, or the thermocouple needs replacing.
Odd sounds from your 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 tank. Hissing could be a sign that there is a leak or condensation. The majority of noises are benign, but it's still a smart idea to have it checked.
If you experience a sudden decrease in hot water pressure, it may be caused by calcium build up in your pipes or faucets.
Tankless water heaters are the most recent type of water heater. They are more energy efficient than their tank cousins, are more cost efficient to run and usually have a longer lifespan, but are more expensive initially. They demand a lot less space and do not run out of hot water, but upon installation can need some extra equipment and re-plumbing or re-routing of gas and water lines.
