:confused: After water is being used and is turned off (faucet, toilet, outside faucet) there is a noise from the refrigerator lines that sounds like a surge of water into the water lines of the fridge. Is there a surge protector that can be attached to the fridge water lines? Any suggestions would be helpful.

Thanks

If your home is under 40 years old then you have air chambers installed. They cushon the shock of water abruptly being shut. Your air chambers need to be recharged. Let me show you how. Back in the 60's we were required to to put shock absorbers,(air chambers) on all bath lavatorys and kitchen sinks. Over time water and condensate built up in them and they must be recharged. First turn off the house at the main house shut off valve. Then open hot and cold faucets at the farthest bathroom to prevent air lock.(This is important.) You will find under each fixture little brass or chrome valves. These are called angle stops. With a small pail held under the angle stop to catch the run off look under the handle of the stop and you will see a nut with the stem running through it. This is called the bonnet packing nut. Put your wrench on it and back it off counterclockwise. Now open the stop and remove the stem and washer assembly, The stop will begain to drain. When it has quit draining reassemble the stop and move on to the next one. Do this on each one of your angle stops. There will be six of them in a two bath home. When you are done, close off the faucets you have opened, turn on the water to the house, and give yourself a pat on the back.
You have just recharged your air chambers and saved yourself a hefty service call bill. Hope this helps you out TOM
