    Yeah just dishwater, hosepipe and kitchen cold off the mains. The rest of the house goes through the balanced cold.

    It depends on the time of day. I think if there's positive pressure from the HW connection it's not as loud

    If it is that's crazy it's been replaced and both had the same problem!

    It’s a new ICG!

    Caleffi were confident it’s not the NRV. But the more I listen the more I think it’s the ICG I don’t have the old one as I put it in the bin!

    Not since I put the PRV in. More like 4.5 during a spike now.

    Hi, I’ve done that before. Near the ICG it’s never spiked more than 5.

    The house had one arrestor T’d off the water meter. I added a second one before the ICG. That pressure gauge was on the second hammer arrestor. I tried opening the PRV yesterday. It just made the noise louder. That’s why it’s showing slightly more than 3 bar

    I was having a little play tonight. I connected a gauge to the mini expansion vessel valve just to see. This sits before the ICG

    Yeap going to get some plastic piping probs at weekend and see. I did actually ring Caleffi UK yesterday - they were so helpful! The guy spent a good 30mins talking to me about the issue. He also thought the hammer was weird.

    Random thought tonight. Could a pipe bend too close to the balanced cold port cause issues?
