The short answer
Water hammer is the bang you hear when fast-moving water is stopped suddenly by a tap or appliance valve. High pressure, quick-closing valves, loose pipes and worn tap jumper valves all make it worse. We find which fixtures trigger it, secure the pipes, install water hammer arrestors where they are needed and fit or reset a pressure reduction valve.
