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.
