Michigan's hard water leaves mineral sediment at the bottom of the tank. Water trapped under it boils and pops as the burner heats it. Flushing the tank once a year prevents this; if it's been years, the sediment may be too thick to flush and the tank is working harder than it should.
Hissing often means water is leaking onto the burner or there's condensation. Sizzling on an electric heater can mean a failing element. Screeching usually points to a partially closed inlet valve or a bad check valve restricting flow.
A tank over 10 years old with heavy sediment, rust-colored water or leaks is a candidate for water heater replacement. A tankless unit avoids sediment problems altogether, and a water softener protects whichever heater you choose.
If you're dealing with this problem anywhere in Michigan, Poling Plumbing can help today. Call (888) 809-6756 or find your city for local service.
