You need to eliminate the shock waves from water hammer to reduce damage to your home plumbing.
The noise is usually the first sign a home owner is aware of a problem.
Ideas:
Install a hammer suppression device near quick closing valves.
Use a fabricated air chamber as a cheaper alternative.
Install a 500 Kpa pressure limiting valve after your water metre & before your home.
Clip pipes as per AS/NZS 3500.
Extra clips is pipe runs along wall studs.
Use ball valves to replace some loose jumper valves at the meter when the meter is fitted with a non return valve.
Try spring loadedwasher if you choose to use a loose jumper valve.
Use silicon around the pipes when it passes through wall studs.
If you place a pressure limiting valve on your dishwasher, place it as far away as possible.
Always use a Licensed Plumber
