[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3576379, member: 5412"] We had a lot of water hammer in the power plant I worked at because of emergency valves shutting off quickly and so on. We are at 129' above the well on a ridge with 3/10 mile of water line and a pressure tank so we have a lot of cushion. Spent most of my adult life in the country with well water so maybe that's why residential water hammer isn't an issue. Edit: we have to run over 100 lbs of water pressure at the well to overcome the head pressure of distance/height so we get about 60 lb at the house. Everything is low volume like the showers and the toilets are low gallon to help our septic system. [/QUOTE]
