Good morning,
I've lived in a newly built home for about 2 years. Today I noticed a popping noise from the pipes in one of the upstairs bathroom sinks. When I run water it disappears to return when water is stopped.
I've determined that the sink noise is related to when the upstairs HVAC runs. The heater turned on upstairs and the popping returned. FYI---when the heater cuts off, there's one louder pop and the popping stops!
Any solutions that I might be able to administer?....(I'm not a plumber...) The popping in continuous and is different than the sound that your pipes make when running hot water, expansion, etc.
Please help. My home is on the market to be sold and these noises could scare buyers.....
Thanks very much,
prollins
