    Supply Lines vibrate when I turn on my dishwasher
    Every time I start my dishwasher the supply lines vibrate causing quite the disturbance. Here are some helpful pieces of information that might assist someone in providing a response.


    * New home within the last year
    * New dishwasher
    * Water supplied by onsite well
    * The vibration seems to subside a bit if I turn the kitchen faucet on

    That's lowering the pressure to the DW. You can try lowering the house pressure or purchase some copper pipe straps ,(see image) and strap the supply line down. Good luck, Tom,
