Understanding Storage Tank Water Heaters

These heaters come equipped with a reservoir, holding between 20 to 100 gallons of hot water. When you turn on your hot tap, the heater releases water from the tank's top. To replenish, cold water flows into the tank's bottom, gets heated, and keeps the tank full. But, a heads-up: even if you're not using the hot tap, energy might get used. Why? Standby heat losses. This means the tank might lose some heat to its surroundings, potentially affecting your energy bills.

The water heater works tirelessly, ensuring you've got hot water at your fingertips. But, being an ever-active appliance, it's prone to wear and tear. Here's what could potentially disrupt your warm showers:

• Pilot Light Issues: Got a gas-powered heater? A troublesome pilot light might be behind any temperature inconsistencies.

• Thermostat Troubles: If you've got an electric water heater, it's the thermostat ensuring you get the right water temperature. A hiccup here could be the culprit.

• The Drip Drama: Leaks happen. Though they might not always mess with your temperature, they can certainly undermine your heater's reliability.
