    A humming sound=vibration. Does this happen on all your hot water faucets or just one? Is it louder on just one? Did it just start or has it been ongoing?

    Have you gor heat traps in your water heater? The ball vibrating in the nipple coming out of the hot side would explain this situation. Regards, tom
