Standard tank style water heaters are large storage tanks which store from 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are greatly insulated to help make sure your water will remain piping hot whenever you would like it.
Tank water heaters are generally dependable, however they can have problems. Below are some commonly occurring 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 fuse. The initial thing you should evaluate is the fuse box.
If the circuit breaker is not a problem then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater may need replacement. On a gas water heater, the critical things to look at are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rusty hot water can be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If left untreated, corrosion could 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 not rusty is likely due to calcification build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.
Hot water which smells like rotten eggs or sulfur is likely caused from bacteria build up inside the hot water tank.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank could be due to several different problems. 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 might be due to 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 might be blocked, there may be air in the gas line, the gas valve could be malfunctioning, or the thermocouple requires changing.
Odd sounds from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises 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. The majority of sounds are benign, but it's still a smart idea to have it checked.
If you have a recent decrease in hot water pressure, it could be caused by calcium build up in your pipes or faucets.
