Sebastian- would lowering the flow rate not lower the pressure? Slower flow, slower pressure?

@alneg6234
@alneg6234 4 года назад
the air pipe is not always allowed by code. in apartments reduce the pressure to the fixture hammering by simply closing off the valve serving it. The water pressure to your apartment could be higher than needed.

I live in a block of flats of 1 floor. I am on the first floor and i am getting water hammer. I've installed an arrestor and that hasn't solved the problem. I believe it might be my neighbours water metre below. I have switched of all my water and i stil get the banging in the pipes even though my neighbour is out. Could it be a faulty water meter because I'm out of options.

Thanks for the video. My situation is a little different. The water hammer only happens when my yard sprinklers switch on or off. The sound is not a buzz or vibration. It's just one distinct thud/bang when the sprinklers cycle on or off. Only the sprinklers seem to produce any noise in the pipes. I don't trust my soldering skills so I would rather not cut any pipes. I'm semi-retired and don't want to pay a plumber. I'm thinking of threading an arrestor directly on to an unused outdoor faucet and just leave that faucet open. We've lived here 18 years and have very rarely used that outdoor faucet (it's upstairs on a balcony). Here's my question: Are there water hammer arrestors that can be directly screwed on to a regular outdoor faucet? Would that arrangement help reduce or stop the banging? Thanks in advance!
@Lunchsack86
@Lunchsack86 5 лет назад
i have the same issue. I opened all my inside and outside faucets started my sprinklers then killed the water to the house till it drained still haveing the one loud bang when one zone of my sprinklers turn off Greg, did you get yours fixed?
@alneg6234
@alneg6234 4 года назад
@@Lunchsack86 because you can't reduce pressure to sprinkler lines for obvious reasons, one solution is to install water hammer arrestor in the water line feeding the sprinklers. otherwise if hammering is happening anywhere else simply reduce the water pressure by closing the fixture's valve until hammering stop.
