Hello,
Whenever we turned on our cold water taps, the pipes made a knocking noise, so I fitted a PRV and reduced the mains from 4 bar down to 3 bar and this has cured the knocking.
However, whilst it has solved one problem it has created another: our toilets have torbeck valves in them and now when the cistern fills up, there is a bang as the valve switches off.
Is there a way to cure this hammer, so our pipes can be peaceful at last?
Thanks, Stephen.
