Standard tank models of water heaters are big storage tanks which contain up to 80 gallons of water. They are greatly insulated to ensure your water will remain piping hot any time you you desire it.
Tank water heaters are usually dependable, however they can have problems. Below 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 fuse has tripped. The first thing one should evaluate is the breaker box.
If the circuit breaker is fine then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater could require replacement. On a gas water heater, the critical things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rusty hot water might be caused by corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If left untreated, corrosion could progress and develop a leak in the water tank. Replacing an anode rod is a relatively 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 is likely caused from scale build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.
Hot water that smells like rotten eggs or sulfur generally is caused by bacteria which has amassed in the water heater tank.
A water leak from the bottom of the tank might be caused by a number of issues. It could be caused by a temperature and pressure valve, condensation, a leaking gasket, deterioration of the tank, or draining from the overflow pipe.
Water leaking from above the water heater may be due to the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a faulty 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 clogged, there may be air in the gas line, the gas valve could be malfunctioning, or the thermocouple requires changing.
Strange noises from your 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 water heater. 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 recent decrease in hot water pressure, it could be caused by calcium deposits in your pipes or faucets.

They are more power efficient than their tank cousins, are more cost efficient to run and usually last longer, but are more costly up front. They require tremendously less space and don't run out of hot water, but in the beginning can need some extra accessories and re-plumbing or re-routing of gas and water lines.
