Standard tank style water heaters are large holding tanks which hold 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are immensely insulated to help make sure your water will continue to be piping hot whenever you you desire it.
Tank water heaters are normally dependable, though they sometimes have problems. Below are a few commonly occurring problems that affect standard tank style gas and electric water heaters.
The most frequent reason there isn't any hot water in the water heater is a blown fuse. The first thing you should check is the breaker box.
If the circuit breaker is fine then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater may require replacement. On a gas water heater, the important things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rust colored hot water could be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If left untreated, corrosion can progress and develop a leak in the water tank. Replacing an anode rod is a fairly uncomplicated process and it could extend the lifetime of your water heater by a few years.
Hot water that is only discolored, but is not rusty could be due to hard water 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 which has amassed in the water heater.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank could be from a few different issues. 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 the top of the water heater could be from the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a malfunctioning 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 clogged, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve could be defective, or the thermocouple needs replacement.
Strange sounds from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises commonly happen when there is a buildup of sediment in the lower portion of the tank. Hissing could be a sign that there is a leak or condensation. Most noises are benign, but it's still a good idea to have it checked.
If you have a recent reduction in hot water pressure, it might be caused by calcium deposits in your pipes or faucets.

They are more power efficient than their tank counterparts, cost less to run and tend to have a longer life, but are more expensive initially.

Sediment build up happens frequently and can cause damage to your water heater. Installing a water softener could slow the build up. An additional possible solution is to have your water heater flushed every six months with a descaler.
