This water hammer is caused by the actuation of the solenoid valves in a clothes washer. It rattles the pipes, particularly the vertical ones behind the bathroom wall. Where is the best place to position an arrester? I had suggested that one be temporaily attached to the nearest faucet (faucet then left open, of course) to see if there was any effect before permanent in-line attachment. Which brings me to my next question: Do they always work? Thanks in advance. Frank
