The clicking noise you are hearing could be the heater is overloading the breaker and it is on the verge of tripping

This could be caused by the heater being to large for the circuit. Check the amperage rating on the heater and the rating on the breaker

It also cold be the circuit breaker is going bad and needs to be replaced by a qualified electrician

These are 2 possible answers you also could have a bad (loose) electrical connection some where in the circuit

How do you stop a home's water pipes from emitting a constant low harmonic?

It's possible that there is noise in the water main from the City and it's being transmitted into your house. You could try a pressure regulator or possibly some of the newer plastic pipe to insulate out some of the noise. You probably wouldn't need to re-pipe the whole house, maybe 10 or 15 feet would be enough to stop the noise.


Why do your joints click sometimes?

The clicking noise is caused when a burst of air enters your joints. When you pop your knuckles, air enters the joint and causes a popping sound. When you walk, your joints might pop themselves to destress. It is the same feeling your back gets after a good pop from a Chiropractor, the joints are destressing. Joints are supported by a complex arrangement of muscles and tendons. These keep the joint stable, allowing it to function properly. Some people have slightly lax joints and when this is the case the joint may click. Minor trauma such as a sprain may cause the joint to start clicking because inflammation and damage disrupts the stability and organization of the supporting muscles and tendons. Once this has healed the clicking disappears. In fact, more often than not the person won't even be aware that the injury has happened. I think this is very fun, when you hear your own joints are clicking. I think the air getting into your joints will participant the bone metabolism. So that we can get the fresh bone right?


Does noise have a pattern?

So called "White Noise" is purely random. Noise that you hear that comes from from physical processes almost always has a pattern and is not white noise.


Can an electric water heater cause elect noise?

I would say no, there is no sparking in the electrical connections. With a motor, electrical noise is caused by electricity traveling between the brushes and the rotor which is spinnung. For example a Hair Drier or any type of motor that plugs into a household outlet. The smaller the motor, the less static that is created. I am just not sure if any of the static travels very far such as to another home nearby.
