Judo softener makes loud banging or water hammer noises during regeneration

Safety first: Do not touch moving valve parts during regeneration. Avoid standing directly over rigid copper lines when testing.

• Check pressure: Measure mains pressure. If it exceeds Judo's recommended maximum, install or service a Judo pressure reducing valve upstream.
• Secure piping: Ensure all pipes near the softener are properly clipped and supported to reduce movement.
• Install hammer arrestor: Fit a water hammer arrestor on the line feeding the softener if hammer persists.
• Adjust regeneration time: Schedule regeneration for night hours to minimize disturbance, but still address the underlying pressure issue.
