I have a 50 gallon hot water tank that is about 5 years old. The motor on the tank I believe is loud and
the exhaust leading to the outside is annoyingly loud. The service tech is saying all is good however both
of my neighbors have theirs tanks vented outside and are pretty quiet. Any suggestions to fix the issue would
be appreciated.

Here are some more details...... first pipe coming off of the tank is approximately 14" to the first elbow, then a 10" pipe to second elbow, then a
3" pipe piece to the next elbow then 26" pipe heading outside with an elbow facing down. I believe all piping is 2" in diameter

If I have read other posts correctly, the issue may be too many elbows etc based on the horizontal / vertical limits

Again any suggestions would be much appreciated
