    Hearing a jackhammer like sound in my house around the same time once a week
    I am hearing a jackhammer like sound in my house. It's happened twice now. One per week around the same time. It happens from 6:20AM and stops around 6:35AM. It pulses for about 3 seconds, then stops. Then repeats in about a minute. It's louder in the upstairs on my house. Sounded like it was coming from the attic so I looked around up there--heard the sound, but it didn't sound any louder, nor could I identify it.

    Noises and smells are the hardest to track down if we're not there to see for ourselves.
    Luckily you have one of the easier ones. Noise = vibration and the louder the noise the more forceful the vibration. Can you feel any vibration starting where the water enters your house? Somewhere it's going to be stronger then other places. That's where to start checking. Good luck, Tom

Hearing fog horn sound [ 1 Answers ]

We keep hearing a phantom fog horn sound. We think it is coming from the plumbing. We hear it even when no water is running, but at times it seems to happen when the automatic sprinklers go on. It used to be mainly in the morning, but now it happens at night as well. What can this be?
