Sounds like you haven’t ever drained yout water heater since it was new. A nat. gas water heater has to heat through the sediment collected on the bottom of the tank, which will cause the sounds you are referring to…water boiling between sediment and bottom of tank. Try flushing the tank, but it might be too late.[email][/email]
