I have a Toto Neorest 700 that's always filled fast, after flushing. I have enjoyed the quick recovery, but sometimes it clanks the pipe as soon as it stuffs off. Lately, it seems like it's a little louder than before (could just be now I'm aware of this, because of a gauge). My gauge sometimes shows scary high readings and I finally traced it back to the upstairs toilet. When I saw 160 PSI, I had to investigate!
I have a well system, so incoming pressure is variable. Currently, it's set to peak at 70 PSI. I plan to reduce that to 65 with a PRV separating the irrigation side and house side.
I'd imagine reducing the pressure further might help. is this normal behavior? I believe I installed a water hammer arrestor near the source, back when I was getting things ready for the fancy commode. Also, the gauge is on a spigot in the garage. It's fed by the softened side, just like the bathroom.
side note: I did have an issue with the softeners T&P valve on a old water heater, which was helped but not eliminated by replacing with a new one. Added an expansion tank, thinking it would probably be a good idea anyways, if I'm adding a PRV. I know that's another topic, just trying to cover my bases.
Thanks
