My c/h system is 10mm, and hot water system 15mm added later (years ago) with one Honeywell open/closed valve on rads circuit and one on hot water circuit.
Since fitting a new pump 2+ years ago (direct replacement as near as I could get) there is a single water hammer each time the hot water system valve closes. This didn't happen with the old pump, and nothing else has changed.
The pump stops pushing before the valve closes water off, as it should do.
Anyone got any ideas?
It has been suggested that I fit an air bottle/spring to absorb the shock of the water flow being stopped, but if so I don't know sizes or details, or possibility of success.
Thanks
