According to technicians at Anthony Wimpey Plumbing, water heater malfunctions are relatively common in Covington, GA, and the surrounding areas. Water heaters and tankless systems alike are prone to issues due to local water conditions, including moderate mineral content, resulting in irregular noises during routine use. Homeowners who notice such sounds are strongly encouraged to investigate possible causes, as they are usually an indication of abnormalities that can lead to higher energy bills, leaks, or total heater failure if left unaddressed.
Common water heater sounds include popping, rumbling, sizzling, hissing, banging, and screeching. Popping and rumbling often indicate sediment buildup, which is one of the most frequent causes of water heater noises. This issue occurs when minerals and debris accumulate at the bottom of a tank, creating various sounds as water heats and moves through the system - forcing the unit to work harder and potentially shortening its operational life, the guide explains.
Banging or hammering sounds typically point to excessive pressure within the water tank; high pressure stresses the entire system, increasing the risk of burst pipes and other potential safety hazards, Anthony Wimpey Plumbing notes.
On the other hand, hissing or sizzling is usually caused by water dripping onto hot elements, which is a sign of an internal leak - a hazard that may pose an electrical risk. Other sounds include high-pitched screeching, which is indicative of restricted water flow through valves; ticking or knocking, which is caused by heating element expansion; and crackling, which may occur in an electric water heater if the heating element requires maintenance.
Anthony Wimpey Plumbing’s guide says that the most urgent issue is internal leaking - homeowners who hear sizzling are advised to call a plumber for immediate assistance. High pressure and sediment buildup can be corrected with water hammer arrestors and consistent flushing, respectively; milder cases typically do not require professional repairs unless the noises persist.
Finally, the company advises homeowners to schedule annual maintenance and contact a licensed professional at the first sign of water heater issues to prevent escalation.
