Water Pressure in Mains causing problems

duncank

Hi,


I'm new here but thought I would join to ask a question about the water main running alongside my property.


I have a problem that started about 12 months ago, the property before then was perfect, we now have a humming noise, vibration and pressure within the house that was not there before, I have isolated the electrics (we do not have a gas connection) and the noise still continues, we had a service outage ( no water) recently and the noise and vibration stopped.


I am certain it isn't water hammer or anything to do with the system in the house, since if I switch off the water at the stopcck the noise continues.


I would appreciate any advice or comments from any one who has had the same symptoms.


Regards


Duncan

Turn off the water in the street, does the noise stop ?
If so you have a leak on the incoming water main between the external stop tap & the internal one
