Is there a surefire way of preventing water hammer? Will an arrestor work? Every time a tap is shut off abruptly, the washing machine stops filling or the toiletfinishes filling, the pipes bang downstairs in my house.
I'm doing a kitchen install shortly, and would rather not have to pull up the new floor if a pipe bursts due to water hammer. Can I fit an arrestor just after the stop ****? Is there a good way of testing/regulating water pressure in case that's the problem?
Any thoughts?
