    Does this happen with every faucet that you turn on or is it localized to one place in the house. Give more info and we might be able to pinpoint your problem.

    If the noise happens all the time the water is running you probably have a loose washer on one of your faucets or the cutoffs under the faucet. If it is a banging noise when you turn the faucet off it is probably a water hammer and will probably have to have an air chamber installed to absorb the shock of the water stopping so fast. Give more info if you would like to.

    Hi Shawn,
    Please explain what the noise sounds like. Vibration/chatter? Big bang? Squeel? Moan? What? Cheers, Tom
