What is the most common problem with a gas hot water heater?
The most common problem with a gas hot water heater is a faulty thermocouple. The thermocouple is a safety device that senses the pilot light's heat and signals the gas valve to stay open and supply gas to the burner. If the thermocouple is not working correctly, the gas valve may shut off the gas supply to the burner, resulting in a loss of hot water.
Other common issues with gas hot water heaters include a pilot light that won't stay lit, a faulty gas valve, a dirty burner, a clogged gas line or air inlet, a leak in the tank or pipes, and sediment buildup in the tank, which can cause rust and corrosion. Regular maintenance, such as flushing the tank and checking the burner and gas lines for debris, can help prevent these problems and extend the life of the water heater. It's also important to have a licensed plumber inspect and service the water heater annually to ensure that it's functioning safely and efficiently.

Water damage: If you notice water damage around the base of your toilet, it may be a si
