After I use shower there is drip sound for over ten minutes in wall behind shower. Then it stops. This happens with hot or cold(did ten minute test) so not due to expansion. House is 33 years old.
I changed old, conventional shower-head to one with a handheld shower wand and now when I turn off water there is *drip drip drip* sound in wall for ten minutes then it stops. I took off head and let water flow and there is no drip sound. I would go get another shower head with wand but I am thinking it has something to do with the design of the wand. Perhaps water flow is impeded somehow from draining due to head elevation so it drains back DOWN the pipe instead of out of the head or the tub spout below.
Any help?? I tried everything I read on boards so far except changing heads completely. I love my wand head and never had problem before.
