Dear all,
Working on a triton shower valve, its being run from a ravenheat rsf 820/20 on the hot side and mains on the cold. When the shower is turned on about 1/4 of full, the vibration through the hot side is unbelivible, it sounds like the house id going to take off, but the all the taps are ok , I lifted some of the floor boards and and it was clear that the pipework was never clipped when first installed, i did what i could, but the homeowner is not that keen on me knocking holes in walls to clip out.

Whats causing this? is it pressure? if so a pressure reduceing valve would cure this wouldn't it?

Any thoughts?

thanks
