LG Washers Need This! October 31, 2009 Anthony Sciandra (Penna.) My new LG front loader clothes washer was bringing down the house with its water hammer! LG sure knows how to build water hammer into their clothes washers. If you have an LG clothes washer there are two things you need to do. One, is open the back-end of the LG clothes washer and re-torque the hardware holding the inlet plumbing to the chassis because all the water hammering has made them loose. Secondly, attach a 660-H to both the cold and hot water intakes. The 660-H does an excellent job from the get-go.
Not really working September 29, 2009 Stanley J. Hasegawa (Edmonds, WA) My washer repairman recommended this arrester. My plumber didn't think it would work. So far, it has reduced the noise by maybe 20 per cent. If you purchase this item, don't expect miracles, except maybe you'll feel better knowing you tried to fix the problem.
Water Hammer Eliminator September 9, 2009 Len (Madison, AL USA) Works as advertised. Bought two, placed them on the hot and cold water lines going to a LG front loading washer. Should have bought them several months earlier. Had the option of installing them at the washer or the spiggot. I chose the spiggot. Either location would have been a snap. LG should give you a couple of these when you buy their washers.
Does what it is supposed to do! September 6, 2009 Joe (Plano TX) It is a coincidence that I also have LG front load but I guess that rapid closure of water inlet valve is a common feature of all front load machines. My stainless steel hoses used to bang on dryer back and create annoying sound. After reading reviews below, I could not wait to order from Aamzon and bought it from local Home Depot. Lazy I am, first installed at the tap (as shown in picture) and hammer effect was reduced by 80% but hoses would still (slightly) bang the dryer as some hammer would ripple towards the tap. I was impressed with the noise reduction and decided to connect this directly to the washing machine (by the way, this is the recommended way by the manufacturer). It worked! No more annoying noise - completely cured the problem.
Before you begin, keep following handy : some cleaning rags/wipes, 8" pipe wrench, philips screw driver, kitchen sheer, spirit level and leveling wrench. Take this as an opportunity to level the washing machine from all sides and also to check the dryer vent connection (my vent installation by BestBuy wasn't perfect). Washing machine inlet pipe has PVC threads - exercise extra care while tightening.
Total time spent - 1 hr (if your dryer vent is perfectly sealed or your washer/dryer has clean back, you should be able to finishe off in 10 minutes). As an added bonus, washing machine vibrations are reduced to minimum and laudry room does not get warm.
Silence Is Golden July 24, 2009 Anonymous (New Lenox, IL) Our new LG washer sprays water in quick, short bursts which caused terrible hammering in our water pipes. I put one of these on each water inlet and the hammering has vanished completely. As other reviewers have noted, I also received the 90 degree "T" version in the second picture, which I think is actually better than the straight line version for my situation. I am very happy with this product and only wish I had found it sooner.
