Last night I was in the kitchen and the screaming started and then quickly subsided. In that case the noise seems to come from a combination of stick float mechanism that may not fully open the fill valve and thus a partial restriction in the water line. Step: 5) It is a solid rule of thumb to set up a filter at the valve inlet to protect the waterline. There is a loud howling sound coming from the backflow valve on the Hunter Pro-C. What is causing this problem? Or see WATER SUPPLY PIPE WHISTLE NOISE FAQs - questions and answers about noises from water pipes that were posted originally on this page. Water Loss Specialist Conference, Journal of Sound and Vibration 329, no. Step: 6) Go to the lower section of the bonnet and take off the diaphragm and spring gasket. Moussou, P., Ph Testud, Yves Aurgan, and Avraham Hirschberg. Here we discuss the causes of water supply piping noises such as whistles or shrieks, we cite pipe noise research, and we explain how these whistling pipe noises can be cured or prevented in the first place. If the spigot or faucet is only partially open this could be causing an issue with the pressure regulator, as it requires a certain amount of pressure and flow through the inlet in order to operate. Often we can diagnose that phenomena by leaving the tap open exactly in the position at which the sound in being produced, then at the main water shutoff, try closing the valve slightly. It does not matter which wire goes on the positive or negative side of your battery-made valve activator. Do you hear a knocking sound from the sprinkler system? The screaming could be from water velocity noise when your neighbor runs water, noise transmitted to your space. Once you set it up correctly, the pressure will be automatically adjusted. The only way to eliminate the noise is to reduce the flow to almost non existent. If you have high water pressure, a pressure-reducing valve is a simple addition to the outlet to reverse your noise problems. In the first 6ft/horizontal part of pipe there is the main shutoff valve, water meter, pressure reducing valve, backflow preventer, secondary shutoff valve. I can understand water hammer noise when a neighbor runs water when you share common water piping. Im worried a pipe is going to burst. There were no such problem with this meter. before the stop tap which isolates the property's supply from the main, the only thing that I can think of doing is to restrict the flow by turning down the stop tap on the main in the street which supplies several properties.
