Symptoms of Water Heater Issues
- Inconsistent water temperature: Experiencing fluctuations in hot water temperature can suggest sediment buildup or a failing heating element.
- No hot water: If your water heater is not producing hot water at all, it could indicate a faulty thermostat or a broken heating element that requires immediate attention.
- Strange noises: Unusual sounds, such as rumbling, popping, or hissing, can indicate the presence of sediment buildup inside the tank, which can lead to further damage if not addressed.
- Water leaks: Any signs of water pooling or leakage around the base of your water heater are a clear sign of potential internal failure that warrants professional evaluation.
- Discolored water: Hot water that appears rusty or cloudy can indicate corrosion within the tank or the pipes, signaling a need for repair or replacement.

Why Is My Water Heater So Noisy?
Unexplained noises from your water heater can be unsettling. From subtle humming to alarming bangs, these sounds often signal underlying issues.
One common culprit is sediment buildup. Over time, minerals from hard water settle at the bottom of the tank, forcing the heating element to work harder. This can result in rumbling or popping sounds during operation. Additionally, a malfunctioning or damaged heating element itself can produce strange noises.
Another factor is the expansion and contraction of the tank and pipes as they heat and cool. This natural process can create creaks and pops that, while startling, are usually harmless. However, persistent or new noises should never be ignored. They could indicate more serious problems, like excessive pressure or potential tank failure.
At IRBIS Air, Plumbing & Electrical, we can diagnose the cause of any noise and fix the problem in no time.
