Hi All,
I've searched through the forums for remedies to a banging gas hot water system. It only seems to happen when the gas is on so i think it is sediment.
The problem is when I drain the tank, the water comes out clear and there is no sediment visible. When I refill and run the hot water taps in the house it comes out brown for a little while but I'm guessing that is just crap in the pipes?
I thought it might be a loose flue expanding with the heat but the noise happens when i turn on the hot water taps as well so I don't think that is the reason. Could that rule out sediment as well?
Thanks
Jac
