Water Hammer Arrestor - 3/4" Brass SPARES2GO

A water hammer arrestor is a device that absorbs the shock and pressure surges caused by the rapid closure of valves in a plumbing system, preventing the banging noise known as water hammer.

Install the arrestor as close as possible to the appliance causing the water hammer, typically directly on the valve supplying water to the appliance.

Yes, this arrestor can be installed vertically or horizontally.

While it effectively addresses water hammer, it may not resolve all plumbing noises. Other noises may be caused by different issues.

You should notice a significant reduction or complete elimination of the banging noises when appliances with valves (like washing machines and dishwashers) shut off water flow.

You may need a wrench to loosen and tighten the water supply hoses and the arrestor.

This arrestor is rated for up to 60 psi.

Made of brass, the arrestor is designed for long-lasting performance and should provide many years of service.

Check all connections for leaks and ensure the arrestor is securely installed. You may need to install additional arrestors if the problem is severe or if multiple appliances are causing the issue.

Tighten the connections, ensuring they are not overtightened. Use Teflon tape on the threads if necessary to create a better seal.

Verify that the arrestor is the correct size (3/4") for your plumbing. If your connections are a different size, you may need adaptors.
