What could be causing this? Help! lA SILENCING NOISY PLUMBING: A plumbing system may produce any number of fnoises — but it shouldn’t. Each noise tells you something # about what is calling out for correction. You just have to in- Hterpret the sound to apply the cure. A “chattering noise” when 2 faucet is turned on or off can @ be most annoying, and may make you think that the whole systern is about to come apart at the seams, It is not usually @ all that serious; the problem is likely within the faucet itself. It, First, check to make sure that the faucet washer is : tightly screwed to the stem. If the washer is worn, it should abe replaced even though the faucet is not leaking. Also in- ®spect the threads on the stem for signs of wear. If the stem Bi(after being screwed back into the faucet) can be moved up Band down, this is a definite indication of thread wear. Either fthe stem or the entire faucet should be replaced. : Pipes “rattling”, as water passes through them, may Z not be fastened securely. If they are accessible (as in a base- @ ment or craw! space), install additional clamps to fasten them firmly to the joists. On the other hand, a “ticking sound” may indicate that a pipe is fastened too tightly; cold pipes will expand aslightly as hot water enters them, causing this noise if there Bis not sufficient expansion room. ; A “whistling noise” is caused when water under y pressure must pass through a point of restriction. A com- & mon problem is with the toilet tank intake valve. If your toilet “whistles” as it is being refilled after flushing, try cutting down the flow by shutting the supply stop slightly, (The supp- Bly stop is the valve below the t oilet that governs the flow of “a NORTH SHORE ROOFING Since 1968 988-3791 TAR & GRAVEL ONLY Repairs & te-roofs.

Some toilet mechanisms have an ad-f justing screw on the intake valve itself to solve this problem. & “Water hammer” is a loud, banging noise that occurs when a faucet is shut off quickly. Behind every fis:ture, there should be an air chamber which provides a cushion of air 's absorb # the force of the rushing water — and the accompanying noise. f There are many different types of air chambers, in addition to the simple pipe-and-c2p type, but all work on the samc§ principle. If the chamber becomes filled with water, its j cushioning effect is compromised. Fs To “recharge” the air chambers, shut down the eu-§ tire water supply system at the main valve, and completely @ drain the system. Open all the faucets to allow air into the B sytem, then close the faucets and turn off the main valve. % If water hammer still persists, you may have to knock out § a few walls to instal} new air chambers at the trouble spots. § While this may seem a drastic solution, it is probably preferable to risking a burst pipe because of the condition. B A possible alternative is to install a large air chamber f at the main intake valve. While there is no guarantee, this § sometinws works to alleviate the problem. _ READERS ARF TO SEND THEIR QUESTIONS Tu: SHELL BUSEY 8221-120TH STRE}-T. Vac SRI DELTA, BC.
