Water hammer

‘Water hammer’ refers to the banging noises which sometimes come from plumbing pipework, it's normally one or a series of banging noises coming from the pipework usually when a tap or valve is turned off.

It is usually caused in high pressure (i.e. mains pressure) water systems either when a tap is turned off quickly, or by fast-acting valves on appliances, which suddenly stop the water moving through the pipes and sets up a shock wave through the water which causes the pipes to vibrate and ‘shudder’.

‘Water hammer’ will be made worse by having worn valves and pipework inadequately supported.

Not only is the noise annoying, but it can lead to damage to joints (broken joints), so ‘water hammer’ must be cured rather than tolerated. Failure to stop water hammer will eventually cause a joint to loosen or break which could cause hundreds if not thousands of pounds worth of damage.
