I wonder if the problem I'm having is similar. I have one of those plastic "balls" to control my shower flow. It's so hard to move that over the course of the past year, it's damaged the plastic so much that it's started breaking off little chunks and I have to turn the water on and off a bunch of times to get the right temp. You know, turning it a little this way and a little that way, it's so frustrating.
If I take the screw out of the middle, is water going to spray all over me? [I don't have access to the water main. I would have to put in a work order for the apartment maintenance guys to come fix it.
Send me a picture of what you have Shari. you should always be able to take the plate
Off and hopefully there is isolation valves on you valve. Especially in an apartment building.
I don't think I can!

Thanks Brian! I had no idea a cartridge could caue that problem.
This was the easiest try I could think of, before starting surgery. 😂
I am curious about what is wrong with the cartridge, please do let us know if you find out. Thank you for the video.
Would have been great if you could hear the banging before changing the valve.
You didn’t hear that? Did not want to let it go long. The neighbors were already mad.
Sounds identical to me?
Hi, my bathroom spigot is leaking. The value to change from tub spigot to shower is right below the on/off. It's a Delta.
I cured water hammer by shutting off the main supply and opening every faucet inside and outside the house.
Thanks for the tips! Always something new to learn about plumbing!
Your welcome.
I have a shower head that is causing pipe hammering and water pressure pulses. Hoping that a change of the cartridge is the easy fix. Thanks for the video.
Did it fix the issue?
I have the same problem. once we turn on the spout, there's a water hammer noise. Do you think just need to replace the mixing valve or the cartridge? I have two spouts in my house that create water hammer noise after turning on. Or water pressure? Thanks
Love your and mine knipex, they are great!!!!!!!!!!
My favorite part was when he showed the issue for people to compare their situation to!

i have to check my shower valve upstairs it has huge travel before anything happens i wonder if that could just be loose handle or is it the cartridge.
Bro this was crazy hammer. It would shake everything. I was happy it was an easy fix for him.
So I'm in in a condo building and there's a water hammer problem. It looks like its not the faucet, does it mean that my building has to replace the valve ?
😂 there is a chance.
hi sorry english is not my first language.i live in apartment . management has installed new dual speed mode faucet in the new neighbor apartment right below my unit. whenever they use their kitchen faucet i start hearing the normal faucet stream noise as well as speed mode noise in my kitchen. the speed mode hissing noise is very bothersome as i have tinnitus. management is asking me to use earplug whole day. i have been in this apartment for many years. my unit and most other units dont have dual speed switch operated faucet.why this new faucet from neighbor create noise in my kitchen, how this can be solved please help. thanks
Definitely a very informative video brother. 54k man your growing a awesome channel. Keep up the good work buddy
Thank you Steve! 50k giveaway happening soon!
I put a new shower head on and it’s vibrating the top. The bottom one that ur doing in the video isn’t vibrating ! What could be the problem.
I bet it is the shower head. The flow restrictor in the shower head could be the issue. Did it make the noise with your old shower head?
@@ThatFixItGuyI’m having the same issue the above person mentioned. I had a cheap (Walmart) handheld shower head that recently broke. Never had any issues. I bought a Moen handheld shower head and installed it. Now when I turn on the water, it makes a loud vibrating/hammering noise.
Hmm. It seems I can't send a picture! I don't think it's an option!
Either email me or Facebook
Thanks, this was very helpful. Keep the videos coming.
I had thumping in the pipes going to my HD Pegasus (Glacier Bay) shower valve a few years after it was installed. All facets, toilets, dishwasher, and washing machine cycles caused the shower pipes to thump when shutting off the faucets. I changed the back portion of the valve and the noise got a little better but not eliminated. I even installed water hammer arresters on the toilets and washing machine, no help. The problem was in the cut off valves on each side of the mixer valve. There is a spring loaded plunger behind those screws that gets loaded with calcium and gets stuck and needs to be cleaned by soaking in vinegar and water. After I cleaned the plungers and the inside of the cut off valves all the noise was eliminated. Just use a socket to remove the entire cut off valve after shutting off the water to the house.
Why is water is so weak?
