Occasionally my water pipes will make a rhythmic chugging or knocking sound. This happens when there is no water running, and will last maybe 10 seconds or longer. When I hear it I can sometimes stop it by going to the nearest faucet and turning it on, but that doesn't always work. One thing that does always work to stop the noise is to turn off the water supply in my master BR toilet. This toilet is about 1 1/2 year old (Toto Drake). When the chugging noise starts, in the tank of that toilet, there is a few drops of water (with each "chug") going into the overflow tube from the hose that goes in there. This bathroom is basically at the end of the line for my water supply pipes. Other info that may factor in: My home was built in the 1960's and has copper pipes.
Can someone help me, please??
