: : I replaced the ball and pipe system in the back tank of the toilet, now every time you flush a loud banging and rattling noise comes from the pipes in the basement
: Steve,
: The timing of the loud banging could be very telling. Problems that can occur would be things like:
: Loose washers which could be at the new fill valve, or the shutoff at the wall. Perhaps the shutoff for the toilet is not open enough.
: If there is air in the pipes, opening up the faucets in the home would quickly fix that.
