The other night my girlfriend and I were sleeping in bed when at around 5am we heard some whining. We thought it was our dog, but when we checked, he was asleep. The noise continued and after some investigation, we concluded it was our water pipes. We could not, and still cannot, find the problem. There has not been a lack of pressure, everything works fine, and the only lead I had was our bedroom toilet which takes maybe 3 flushes before it is done to refill. I shut the valve off to the toilet, but the pipes still howl. So I assume it is not the toilet.
There does not seem to be a theme to this noise. It happens randomly, mostly when no water has been running.
FYI, we have a well system with a filter and an electric water heater. I checked the pressure of the system and the gauge is reading 45-55 psi.
Any ideas?
