Loose Panel / Structural Vibration Noise
Heater cabinet panels rattle or buzz during operation

Possible Causes
Loose screws on access panels, Warped cabinet panels, Missing vibration dampers, Fan airflow causing panel resonance
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off power before tightening panels.
- Tighten screws: Check all accessible panel screws and fasteners and tighten them.
- Add padding: Where two panels vibrate against each other, add thin foam tape or rubber strips to dampen noise.
- Check base: Ensure the unit is firmly anchored to its base and not rocking.
Persistent structural noise may require panel adjustment or replacement but is usually a minor issue.
