What causes pipes rattle when hot water on in kitchen only?

Possibly, the water pipe feeding from the geyser to that tap has not been secured down properly and is not rattling, or you may need to turn the pressure down on the pressure valve feeding the geyser on the cold line to reduce the noise.


How do you increase pressure at kitchen faucet?

If you're experiencing low water pressure at your kitchen faucet, here are a few things you can try to increase it: 1- Check the aerator: Remove the aerator from the end of the faucet and clean any sediment or debris that may have accumulated inside. 2- Check the water valves: Make sure the valves under the sink that control the water flow are fully open. 3- Check the supply line: Inspect the supply line leading to the faucet for any kinks or obstructions that may be reducing the water flow. 4- Check the water pressure regulator: If your home has a water pressure regulator, make sure it is set to the proper pressure. 5- Call a professional: If none of these steps improve your water pressure, it may be time to call a licensed plumber to inspect and repair any underlying issues.

Why have we recently developed a decrease in household water pressure for example if you flush the powder room toilet the pressure in the kitchen sink or anywhere else is noticably decreased?

Since you didn't offer any information about your water supply, be it a Well with some kind of Pump or City/Community Water System. I can only ask you if you have any filters in line. If so, check to see that they are working properly and not plugged.


Why will a vacuum pump not work in a well that is more than 10 m deep?

The water is pumped upwards by the atmospheric pressure acting on the surface of the water in the well. That is only strong enough to support a column of water that is 10m tall.The water is pumped upwards by the atmospheric pressure acting on the surface of the water in the well.
