Re: Water Hammer in Pipes

All of the taps feeding the washing machines have been modified with arrestors – they’re the only taps in the two flats where the problem originates that don’t cause any noise when used!

The problem did start around the time the owner of the flat immediately above had to have a new hot water system installed – but nothing like that’s occurred (as far as I know) in the flat at the top.

Had a plumber out and he reckons it’s a) definitely water hammer and b) there’s no way it could be anything but in the pipes … and so is common property.

I am currently waiting for the agent to do something, but some of the EC (who I have been keeping informed) are on board.
