There are several common faults that can occur in a hot water system. The four most common faults are a faulty thermostat, a broken heating element, a leak in the tank, and sediment buildup. A faulty thermostat can cause the water to be too hot or not hot enough. A broken heating element can prevent the water from heating up at all.
