Ok, the plumber is finished w/ the re-plumbing of the house except for the laundry area in the basement. He left this area for me to do since he had to leave for a large commercial job up North (which was known when hired him - so he didn't abandon me). He is coming back to look over what I do and for air test when have this area completed.
Question is where would be the best location for the hammer arrestor?
Currently plan to put arrestor on horizontal 3/4" supply just before the tee that splits to go to kitchen sink & laundry branch. It is an Sioux Chief S652-A which is rated for up to 11 fixtures. So, since there are only three fixtures (kitchen sink, laundry tub sink & washer), it can handle the load. The plumber thought it might be better to locate it on the vertical 3/4" pipe that goes to laundry tub & washer.
Thanks,
Matt
