Hi all,
Not sure if this should be posted here or in the pump forum.
Anyway, I am trying to figure out a water hammer issue I am having with my irrigation system (this is the only water hammer issue I have in my house).
I am on a well. The well pump is set to 40/60. Occasionally (not all the time) I get a water hammer during irrigation when the well pump kicks on (somewhere around 38) while a zone is running. It does not seem to coincide with any of my irrigation zone valves opening or closing. It happens while the zones are running and right around the time the well pump kicks on around 38.
It does not happen all the time. Also, when it does happen, it ranges from very mild to sometimes pretty loud.
I have no idea if this is a well pump issue or an irrigation issue (or both).
thanks for any help.
