We're trying to complete some remodeling in our townhouse. We installed 2 new showers where we used to have only one, and now our neighbor is complaining of noise when we use the bathtub (not shower or other faucets). Her bedroom shares a common wall with both bathrooms.
Since the problem is limited to the tub, my thoughts are that the problem is caused by the volume of water coursing through the pipes. How can I limit the gpm for the tub? I haven't measured it, but I'm guessing the flow rate for the tub is greater than 5 gpm. Are low flow cartridges available?
Any ideas? I've already invested quite a bit in sound insulation, which has helped, but she's still not happy.
