    Cricket noise in pipe
    Our pipes make a horrible noise when the washer stops filling the toilet fills up or the water to the bathroom sinks and showers are shut off. We have had a plumber come and install a new water hammer and strap down all the pipes. What started as what seemed a little noise has gotten a lot bigger. What is it?

    Hi RedinMo

    Did installation of the water hammer arrestor(s) resolve the issue, help the issue, or do nothing at all?
