does it make a humming noise when water is on?

First, this water heater installs outside which eliminates the need for venting and also isolates any noise. Second, It is virtually silent. Third, Hands down the best water heater I have ever had. Absolutely love it. Tboat.

It hums but it is a quiet hum. We mounted it outside and we cannot hear it inside. We really like this unit and it was worth every dime we spent.

Yes there is a humming noise that is most likely the fan that comes on when the hot water faucet is turned on, may stay on a few seconds after it's off.

yes it makes a noise. it is subtle but it does make a high pitched squeal that you can hear if you listening for it.

At times I hear the adjustment to the level of water decreasing. Other than that the humidifier is very quiet. That doesn't mean that there is never any sound. I would suggest emptying the water cleaning it out and try again. However what you are heRing may just be the water level adjustment as it runs.

There is a little bit of noise when I warm mine up but it is not that loud, I would describe it as a very soft humming.

Yes, there is noise as it pumps the water. It's not deafeningly loud, but it's loud.

My unit does not make a loud buzzing sound but does have a slight humming sound from fan operating similar to a computer. Call tech support, they are awesome

No, but I put it up to my ear to see if it did, and all I could hear was a very slight hum. Hope this helps.

It only makes noise when the water gets low. It is an alert of sorts. As soon as I hear it, I fill the reservoir and it is back to normal. Love this fountain.

I've had the lamp for a couple of months now and have not noticed any humming or other noise when on. I sometimes have it on for a couple of hours at a time and it has been cool to the touch.

Not much sound to it at all. The water flow is smooth and there is no drop, just a smooth slide down the surface. The only time I hear the fountain is when it gets low (1" left on the ebottom), then I hear a slight hum from the pump.

Our ballast does gives off humming sounds. But on the older ballast gives off buzzing sounds. So to answer your questions, yes, it is very annoying.....

Nope, what we hear is the water filling and the flap rising but it isnt loud, screeching, or scraping. You may need to exchange your unit. There may be a defect with that particular one. Good Luck!

I have mine set to come on once a day, for 15 minutes. The only noise it makes is when it first comes on when the valve opens to let water through. There is no other noise except the sound of running water. At he end of the cycle, it shuts off with a minor noise indicating the valve closing.

Relatively quiet, at first. It can get loud though, when the water gets low or when the motor gets clogged with cat fur. Until then, it's just a soft hum.

Yes, it makes a modest noise, similar to boiling water in an ordinary saucepan on an electric range. The noise is not at all objectionable in my opinion. Also, a few seconds after the water comes to a rolling boil there is an audible "click" when the thermostat cuts off the heating element. I use my kettle several times each week to make hot tea. I find it very handy and recommend it without reservation

It sounds like a low humming. My son uses it every night, all night since I purchased it and still works great, almost a year now since he's had it
