I have recently noticed water hammer when my outdoor sprinkler system cuts off. On closer inspection, I found our 6 month old tankless water heater to be the source of the noise. When the sprinklers shut off, there is a clanging from within the heater, and the pressure relief valve on the hot water side emits a small amount of water.
This is clearly a problem. Would the best way to deal with this be to install a pressure regulator in front of the water heater, or am I better off addressing the source of the water hammer? Any suggestions for this?
Thanks in advance for not trashing me for having a tankless.
