Hello...
When I flush a toilet, when the toilet shuts off the water filling the tank, I hear a slight banging noise for just two seconds. The house was built in 1970. Could it be a clamp or bracket that has loosened, maybe broke? I tried opening all the faucets , shutting off the water main and waiting a half hour, and then turning back on the main, Didn’t seem to help. We have had very frigid temperatures the last month. I set all the facets to drip, so the pipes wouldn’t freeze. I did not notice the clanging in the pipes until the weather turned very cold. Will this go away when the pipes are at a normal spring or summer temperature?
Any idea what this is and how to correct the issue?
thanks!
