water heater noise
when we run the hot water in the bathroom closest to the water heater the pipes shake. It sounds as if the pipes are rattling. How do I fix this? Drain the heater? Thank You, Steve

First, check your water pressure, this could be the issue.
Also, it might be caused by a loose washer on the faucet you are turning on.
Water heaters should be drained at least once a year to prolong the life of tank.
