Bathroom ceiling noise
Hi,
Everytime we use our en-suite bathroom hot tap, we get a clicking noise coming from the ceiling.
It's not a drip - it's too loud for that - possibly an air lock, but it does it every time and has been for months.
Any idea what it could be?

Re: Bathroom ceiling noise
Probably the hot pipe expanding and rubbing against a joist above.Used to get this with my central heating.
I solved the problem by moving house!

Re: Bathroom ceiling noise
Heat expansion is most likely as above, there are things you can do but it depends on how much it's annoying you.

Re: Bathroom ceiling noise
What is above the bathroom? Attic space or floor?

The loft! I'm not sure if the pipes are accessible.

Re: Bathroom ceiling noise
they ought to be, perhaps go up there and get someone to turn on the hot and see if you can locate the noise
