Anti Siphon spigot and water hammer
I installed a new spigot on an outside faucet. It has one of those any
siphon devices on it. When I turn on and off this faucet, I get major water hammer, is there any way to stop this? The was no problem with water hammer on the old one I replaced. I already tried tightening and loosening the bug nut on it. |

It's my understanding that water hammer only happens w hen you close a
faucet. So, turn the knob more slowly when you close the faucet. -- Christopher A. Young Learn more about Jesus www.lds.org www.mormons.com wrote in message ups.com...
