Our new insinkerator hot tap noticably rumbles & boils about 2-3 times/hour. It's louder than our diswasher. Is this defective? We hate the noise.

That is the water heating up in the reservoir. It is noticeable but shouldn't be loud.

If your problem is occurring even with the temperature low AND your tank is older, it is possible that the heating coils within the heater are deteriorating. This exposed "hot spots" that boil the water even if your temperature is low. Or...the thermostat is broken and on "high". This has finally happened to mine and I get noise and sputtering even at the lowest setting. Time for a new tank for me. Mine lasted 10 years.

Same issue with this and a former model for us. The solution is to turn it down. Yes the water isn't as hot, but...

When we had that problem, it was because we had the heat turned up to high - if you turn it down (water temp) a little, I think the sound will go away!

Shouldn't be that loud or, going off that frequently. You can perhaps turn the temp a little? I had one unit that made noise, but the new one is pretty quiet.

yes, it boils for about 5 seconds before turning off without any beep....however, I thought I was purchasing a rapid boil, which is not the case. Also, I don't like the fact that the interior base of the kettle gets a calcium layer that I see !...not thrilled with this purchase!

Mine vibrates across the counter top. You have to hold onto it to keep it from moving away from the cup under the spout. I have had a different brand that didn't have the problem. It doesn't get hot but it is extremely loud.

We have had this unit for several months, (in our kitchen), and I have never heard the unit run. I've heard the question asked before, but we have not had any issues with noise or otherwise. Very happy with our purchase...

Mine started making a lot of noise, at all times of the day, not just while brewing. Then it started brewing incorrect water sizes. Finally it just stopped working completely, no power at all. I called Cuisinart and they offered to send me a new one for $10. I had to ship the old one back, but it is still worth it.

My rotisserie makes quite a bit of noise also. It does cook well so I guess it's a trade-off. My dishwasher makes a lot of noise (10 yrs old) but I use it anyway.

I haven't experienced that yet but I also don't get an extreme boil before I shut it off. Sorry not sure if that helped.

my percolator is pretty loud also when brewing. seems normal although I cant hear mine "throughout the house"

I guess that depends on the noise. When the steam releases, you hear that. It does take a few minutes for the water to heat. Then press and get lots of steam. You might be hearing the water begin to boil?

We have owned one for a couple of months and do not hear any sound to speak of from the water heater itself. We do seem to notice that when water is flowing anywhere in the house we notice the eater flow sounds more than we did with the water heater tank system we replaced. Not sure why that happens.

it's just like a keurig when it gets to the end of the brewing process and pushes out the last of the hot water it can be loud in a very quiet environment. it's only a few seconds, but could be disturbing to some folks, I suppose.

To be clear, the faucet isnt noisy. You are hearing the reverse osmosis unit or the drain gargling . IF it is the drain gargling it is usually because there is a bend in the line causing a back up then when enough water gets in line it forces it through. My RO unit is a kinetico and is very silent.

Mine does the same thing, makes a loud clicking noise when mixing bread or thick cookie dough. Kitchenaid's response was: "The clicking noise is normal, especially under a heavy load." so it is a known problem. Personally, I would call this a design defect. No other motorized appliance I have ever used made noises unless it was broken. I may opt for a smaller model or a different brand.

Him, mines usually not. It does make noise when its heating up the reservoir of water which is how you have hot water instantly...hope that helps!

make sure it boils fully at a high temperature, turn it off and leave it on heat until it finishes making noise usually works fine Greg

You can tell the rotisserie is turning but it is not noisy. If your's is overly loud I would consider returning it for a replacement. I love my rotisserie and how quick clean up is.

It takes a good 5 minutes to heat up it also depends on your water you need distilled water and not tap. Do you hear any noise?
