When Your Water Heater Sounds Like a Rock Tumbler
If your water heater sounds like it’s tumbling rocks for a middle-school geology project… that’s not ambiance.
That’s often scale buildup—minerals settling and hardening in the tank.
Why it matters (beyond the noise)
Scale can:
- reduce efficiency (higher bills)
- shorten heater lifespan
- cause uneven heating
- make hot water smell/taste worse sometimes
Quick homeowner wins
- flush per manufacturer guidance / professional help
- consider descaler products
- reduce hardness and scale long-term with the right system plan
