WATER HEATER MAKES SOUNDS

1.

Occasional excessive condensation, as explained under
WATER LEAKAGE IS SUSPECTED, can cause a sizzling sound
as the moisture is vaporized by the gas flame. This is a normal
sound and may be disregarded.

2.

Sediment and water scale accumulations may cause rumbling
noises. See PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE or contact your
dealer for details of flushing the heater.

If you cannot identify or remedy the condition, contact your
dealer.
