Possible Causes

Fast‑closing inlet valve, High water pressure, Lack of water hammer arrestor, Loose pipework

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off water supply before modifying plumbing.

  • Check water pressure: Measure supply pressure. If excessively high, fit a pressure reducing valve to bring it within Classeq's recommended range.
  • Secure pipework: Ensure inlet pipes are clipped securely to walls to reduce movement.
  • Install water hammer arrestor: Fit a suitable water hammer arrestor near the machine's inlet to absorb shock.
  • Inspect inlet valve: If the valve is noisy or sticking, replace the water inlet valve.
