Standard tank style water heaters are large storage tanks which house 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are immensely insulated to ensure your water will stay nice and hot any time you want it.
Tank water heaters are quite dependable, though they sometimes have issues. These are a few commonly occurring issues that affect standard tank type gas and electric water heaters.
The most typical reason there is not any hot water in the water heater is a blown fuse. The first thing one should check is the breaker box.
If the fuse box is not an issue then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater might be faulty. On a gas water heater, the important things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rust colored hot water can be caused by corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this remains unresolved, corrosion will eventually progress and develop a leak in the water tank. Replacing an anode rod is a fairly easy job and it may extend the lifetime of your water heater by a few years.
Hot water that is only discolored, but does not contain rust might be caused from scale build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.
Hot water that has an odor of rotten eggs or sulfur is likely caused by bacteria build up in the water heater.
A water leak from the base of the tank can be caused by a few different problems. It could be related to 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 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 may be clogged, there may be air in the gas line, the gas valve might be broken, or the thermocouple needs replacement.
Odd sounds from your water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises commonly take place when there is a buildup of sediment in the lower portion of the water heater tank. Hissing could be a sign that there is a leak or condensation. The majority of noises are nothing serious, but it's still a good idea to have it checked.
If you experience a recent decrease in hot water pressure, it may be caused by calcium deposits in your pipes or faucets.

A tankless water heater uses more gas than a typical heater, and may require the installation of larger gas piping. You should verify that your current water pipes can accommodate a tankless heater.
One of the most common problems in tankless water heaters is no hot water. This might be caused by a variety of issues including a gas, electricity, or water supply problem, ignition failure, an error code in the unit, a blocked pipe, or frozen pipe.
Sediment build up happens frequently and can cause damage to your water heater. Installing a water softener could slow the build up. An additional solution is to have your water heater flushed every six months with a descaler.
Most tankless water heaters are equipped with a screen that puts out an error code when there is a problem. There are a wide range of reasons why an error code may show up.
