Why Water Hammer Protection Matters
Water hammer shortens your infrastructure’s lifespan. Water hammer occurs when the flow of water changes suddenly within a pressurized pipeline. These rapid pressure fluctuations can generate powerful surge waves that travel throughout the water distribution system.
Without proper protection, these surge events can lead to:
- Water main Breaks
- Broken pipes/Joint separation
- Damaged valves
- Hydrant failures
- Increased maintenance costs
- Service interruptions, Boil orders
- Premature infrastructure replacement
- General infrastructure damage
- Restoration and construction after repairs are made
- Allowance of higher water pressure
Municipal water systems represent major public investments. Implementing effective water surge suppression helps protect those investments while improving system reliability and reducing long-term operating costs.
