Standard tank style water heaters are large holding tanks which house 30 to 80 gallons of water. They are immensely insulated to help make sure your water will remain nice and hot any time you you desire it.
Tank water heaters are usually able to be counted on, though they sometimes have problems. Below are a few common problems that affect standard tank style gas and electric water heaters.
The most frequent reason there is no hot water in the water heater is a fuse has tripped. The initial thing you should check is the fuse box.
If the fuse box is not an issue then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater might need replacing. On a gas water heater, the critical things to check are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rust colored hot water might be caused by corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If left unresolved, corrosion could eventually cause further deterioration and develop a leak in the water tank. Replacing an anode rod is a relatively easy job and it could extend the lifetime of your water heater by a few years.
Hot water that is only discolored, but isn't rusty could be caused by scale build up on the heating element or debris inside the tank.
Hot water which has an odor of rotten eggs or sulfur likely is caused by bacteria growth in the hot water tank.
A water leak from the base of the tank might be caused by a few 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 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 may be blocked, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve may be broken, or the thermocouple needs replacing.
Odd sounds from your hot water heater such as banging, knocking, hissing, and other noises frequently 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 sounds are benign, but it's still a smart idea to have it checked.
If you have a sudden drop in hot water pressure, it may be caused by calcium build up in your pipes or faucets.
Tankless water heaters are the newest type of water heater. They are more energy efficient than their tank counterparts, are more cost efficient to run and tend to have a longer life, but are more costly up front. They need tremendously less space and never run out of hot water, but at the start can need some extra gadgets and re-plumbing or re-routing of gas and water lines.
