Noise coming from water heater

When the hot water is on there is a buzzing noise that comes from the water heater....when you turn the faucet off the noise goes away. Only happens with the hot water not the cold water. Anyone have a clue what this is? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

If it is a buzz/chattering sound that happens only when the hot water valve is open I would guess it is the check valve on the top of the hot water heater. Our has done it for 8 month. I have a replacement valve but have not changed until it fails.

Hope this helps.
