- Check casing screws: Ensure all front and side panel screws are tight to reduce resonance.
- Inspect mounting: Confirm the heater is securely fixed to the wall and not rocking.
- Support pipework: Add or tighten pipe clips near the heater to prevent pipes from vibrating against walls or each other.
