    Whistling
    Our home heating system is one which uses the main water system and fans to heat up the water and blow out hot air through vents. Can't remember what it's called... Often there is a high pitched whistling noise coming from the main water line when the heater is running. We noticed that when we use any of the house faucets we also get that noise. It's not consistent and comes and goes. What will help the noise go away is by turning on an alternate fauce in the house, flushing a toilet or even turing off the heater. We installed a new PRV over the summer to resolve a "ticking" sound in the pipes. The ticking diminished somewhat but only went away when the weather cooled down. Could this all be related? We have no loss of hot water and the heater, besides the whistling noise, is working as per usual. Any ideas? Thanks for any help you may offer.

    For the past year when we are using the showers in our house there is a high pitched whistling that we hear for the duration of the shower; what could be causing this noise?

Shower making high pitch whistling noise [ 4 Answers ]

My shower makes a high pitched whistling noise. This doesn't happen all of the time, and seems to be more pronounced when changing the temperature from hot to cold. It may come and go, or may make the noise during the duration of the shower. Any thoughts on what could cause this? Any help would...
