My home is a few hundred feet from the street, where it has city water supply and a meter at the street. About half way between the house and street I have a yard hydrant at the garden, which currently has some drip tape hooked up to it on a timer and with a 10psi pressure regulator.
With the lower level of the home gutted (where the water supply enters), I can hear significant water hammer and rushing water sounds when the water starts flowing, even though the yard hydrant is directly attached to the supply line leading to the house, mid-way from the street.
Can anyone help me understand why i can hear this, given it is over 100' from the house, and tapped prior to the home? How does one manage this?
