Can pipe support products help stop the banging sounds in water lines when the washing machine is operating and or the toilets flush?

< Back to Home

Yes. Banging sounds are generated when a quick closing valve shuts off, this creates water 
hammer. Washing machines, ice makers, single lever faucets and toilet fill valves are all considered to be quick closing. Water hammer will expose any loose pipes throughout the home and create banging sounds. If you locate the loose pipe(s) and secure them with the appropriate strap or hanger, you will be able to reduce or stop the banging sounds.
