What is water hammer? Water hammer (or hydraulic shock) is themomentary increase in pressure, which occursin a water system when there is a suddenchange of direction or velocity of the water.When a rapidly closed valve suddenly stopswater flowing in a pipeline, pressure energy istransferred to the valve and pipe wall.ater hammer (or hydraulic shock) is themomentary increase in pressure, which occursin a water system when there is a suddenchange of direction or velocity of the water.When a rapidly closed valve suddenly stopswater flowing in a pipeline, pressure energy istransferred to the valve and pipe wall.
How to identify water hammer. Water hammer can be a big thump that shakes the house, or a series of banging noises starting with a loud bang followed by several echoes. Rapidly closing or opening a valve causes pressure transients in pipelines. If the noise occurs when you open a valve or a faucet, it is probably air in the pipes. If it occurs when a valve closes or the washer changes cycles, it is probably water hammer. If it occurs when a pump starts, it could be water hammer, air in the pipes, or both. Although opening valves can sometimes create water hammer, this typically only occurs with valves larger than 3 in size, and even then it is reasonably rare.
