The noise from banging pipes is caused by shocks of high speed water flowing in the piping system when a fixture is suddenly closed. Sudden stoppage of the water (a non-compressible liquid) flowing at a given pressure and velocity causes a surge or spike of pressure and is called water hammer. When this occurs, a pressure wave travels back through the piping until it finds a point of relief. Dishwashers, clothes washers, fast closing positive shut-off valves incorporated in the system all contribute to creating water shock which is not only annoying but damaging to pipes and appliances. The Watts series 15M2 incorporates a pre-charged, permanent sealed air chamber to absorb the shock. The sealed chamber prevents the loss of air to the water and insures long and trouble-free life.
