Why this heater becomes noisy after a few years? Sounds like metal bending or joint expansion in heating and cooling cycles. Could it be fixed?

Have not experienced your issues. No, DO NOT attempt a repair yourself. Please seek a qualified local appliance repair shop. It is normal for metal to "Make Sounds" when heated or cooled. If these "sounds" are new, different, unsafe, or not up to your standards, also consider replacement due to cost of estimated repairs.

Hello and HNY;I have hot had that happen. I am using this for the second winter. I havein thecenter of the room, not out of the way. There is a lot of air around it. Good luck, Ihave really good luck with it.

What little noise I heard toward the end of the HZ-519 may have been the result of running the heater from seven a.m. to eight p.m. every day during the winter months. There was also less intensity of heat emanating from the unit but not enough to persuade me from not buying a new one.

My problem is If turn OFF the light is turn OFF, but heater is still ON, If you turn ON the heater the light is ON but heater is not ON not heating, sometimes when its ON and Its heating the thermostat numbers moves backward, from 90,85,80,75,and my room temp.showing 90degree Its funny ... I called Mickey Mouse Honeywell Heater, Ha,Ha,Ha, My Heater is just 2 months old, My Heater too make metal bending noise, I have to plug and unplug my heater every time from the wall socket to turn On and turn OFF ...to me Its a dangerous heater !!

expansion noise etc is normal but if it is too loud check for "broken welds"

So far, my unit works well. Used it for four months. Have no idea what to do about the "noise". Running it in "thermostat" mode.

It sounds like a broken wire somewhere between the plug and the heater. Or the heating element went bad.

I'm not sure but it's a great little heater. I've had it for over a year and no issues.

Mine has been doing that also. I don't know what is going on with it. I don't know of any recalls on these heaters.

Contact customer service I have heard they are very good about replacing defective units, mine is still working without any problems. I have read about complaints of heater unit failing, I'm crossing my fingers my unit is still working okay.

Good morning, I have had mine for only a year and it has not had any problems. However, I had a couple of thoughts that might (or might not!) help. Have you tried a different plug in? There is a safety limit switch that will turn off the machine if it overheats that may have failed. Finally, the heating element may have failed. If you have not done so you may want to contact the people that built it - they are here in the USA so they should be available to help. Good luck, I would really miss mine! Dave

If it makes a clacking noise, its because the plastic posts that hold the motor down have cracked. Mine failed and I tore it apart to find out why. Its poorly engineered and won't last more than a year or so through normal daily use. I took a hot glue gun and fixed mine but its poor engineering and design on the manufacturer's part.

I haven't had any problem with such noises.I still feel it's a great product, even though I have problems keeping it attached to a base because of its weight, and my swinging it around to fit my needs. Perhaps you need a new bulb. I use the standard bulb mostly because it gives off heat and warms the area around it.

The noise is the water heating inside the water internal hot water tank. Not to worry. The manual addresses that issue.

It was quiet for awhile but in less than one heating season the fan motor developed a problem. It's pretty loud now though still heating. I've moved it out of the bedroom. Really not happy with it.

Mine started making a high pitched, loud, random squeak after about a year- just beyond warranty of course. I've written the company but no response yet- I've changed the filters and kept the unit really clean- very frustrating...

it may be the coil heating up when the unit is new we have not experienced this noise with ours.

Fan isn't too loud...after a while there the piece developed a light rattle. The wood is medium is brown...Our heater part quite working a couple of years ago...this is more of a visual piece now.

same thing happen to me, I got a new part for the heater it kept doing the same thing, so I just stop using it, because it will go out at night an you will wake up cold, I think it is a bad heater.

The only clicking noises I hear are from the baseboard heaters themselves. This thermostat has a variable rate function which means the heaters are not on full-bore all the time. The thermo ramps down the amount of heat as the temp gets close to your desired temp and ramps up as the temp drops. This is supposed to use less power than if it were all or nothing, on or off.

I only got to use mine 3 times before it went in the shop but I dont recall a sound like that. I did find out my noise is from a bad hepa filter and roller brush...neither of which were replaced before I got it or are covered under the warranty. I am really wondering now what gets replaced on these "reconditioned" units. Knowing that, you may want to have it checked out. Good luck :-D

I have not experienced that with mine. Sounds like thermal expansion of metal. If its under warranty have it replaced, otherwise love it or leave it!
