Standard tank style water heaters are big holding tanks which store up to 80 gallons of water. They are immensely insulated to ensure your water will stay piping hot whenever you you desire it.
Tank water heaters are normally dependable, however they occasionally have problems. These are a few common issues that affect standard tank type gas and electric water heaters.
The most frequent reason there isn't any hot water in the water heater is a fuse has tripped. The initial thing one should check is the fuse box.
If the fuse box is not a problem then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater may need replacing. 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 is not treated, corrosion could eventually cause further deterioration and develop a leak in the tank. Changing out an anode rod is a fairly easy procedure and it may extend the lifetime of your water heater by several years.
Hot water that is simply discolored, but is not rusty may be due to hard water build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.
Hot water which has an odor of rotten eggs or sulfur is usually caused from bacteria build up in the hot water tank.
A water leak from the base of the tank might be from several different issues. It could be from a temperature and pressure valve, condensation, a leaking gasket, corrosion of the tank, or draining from the overflow pipe.
Water leaking from above the water heater could be caused by 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 might be blocked, there may be air in the gas line, the gas valve might be malfunctioning, or the thermocouple requires replacement.
Strange noises from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other sounds frequently occur when there is a buildup of sediment in the lower portion of the water heater. Hissing could be a sign that there is a leak or condensation. The majority of noises are nothing to worry about, but it's still a good idea to have it inspected.
If you have a sudden reduction in hot water pressure, it might be caused by calcium build up in your pipes or faucets.
