Review on 🚰 Solimeta Water Hammer Arrestor with 3/4" GHT Thread for Washing Machine, Toilet, and Air - Set of 2 Pieces by Anurak Grubb

Like many here, I have an LG washing machine with ultra-fast valves, combined with the relatively high water pressure in my house (40-60 pounds per square inch) create a rather loud water hammer effect when closed . I had a choice of where to install the arresters: on the washing machine itself or on the wall (the other end of the power lines connecting the washing machine to the wall). I attached them to the washing machine inlets, which effectively puts them just a few inches from the valves. The flame arrestors do mitigate the effects of water hammer, but not completely - the noise is still there (not as bad as without the flame arrestors) and you may notice the leads tremble a little (mine are steel braided, but still bent and twisted). wiggle ). ). I was hoping they would absorb the shock wave a little better. They probably need to be bigger for that. As for the installation - the arresters came with no instructions. But the usual "hand tight + 1/4 turn" approach seemed to work fine. The principle of their work is such that you can install them in any position without affecting performance. They appear to be parallel to each other due to their size and the distance between the load compartment and the cold water inlets of the washing machine.
