The two most common causes for such noises are steam and sediment in the tank. You can often correct steam problems by merely lowering the thermostat setting. If you suspect a faulty thermostat, turn the setting all the way down, then if the heat source doesn’t go off replace the thermostat.

Draining the sediment should eliminate noise problems and allow your water heater to operate more efficiently.
