I have oil heat, that sends hot water through the pipes upstairs to heat the house through the heat registars.. And i always have a hard time sleeping because the pipes make that creaking/knocking/pounding type sound.. I cant tell if its just the pipes making that sound or because it is expanding against the sheetrock.. Is there anyway to reduce or eliminate this sound? i just moved into this house a few months ago..
thanks mike
You could try bleeding the air out of your system. Also, you can install an air separator that will remove air in your pipes on a constant basis. I installed one and no noises.
