Water tank of my terrace house is at ceiling. Nowadays it is very noisy when water is flowing up. It happens when I on the water pipe that connect to water tank.

This problem exists since I get somebody to fix the water leaking problem from tank.

Anybody knows what caused this? Any solutions?

One possible cause is the main pipe that supply water to the tank is not properly secured. The high water presuure can cause the vibration, hence the noise.

Adjust the stopcock to the water tank half way or less and check whether the noise is still there. This will reduce the flow.

Another possible cause is that the plumber didnt close the cover properly or left it open, hence the noise of flowing water filling up the tank.

The noise should stop once the tank is full. Otherwise there is a leak somewhere and the water from the main will continue to fill the tank.

Check all toilet flushing system to make sure there is no continuous flow of water after a flush.

If the pipe is not properly secured, the vibration can cause a leak again at the joints or elbows after sometime.

Meanwhile, turn the stopcock to medium or low flow.

Solution is remove your water pump that you installed at outdoor after the water meter Case closed.

my previous house also has the same issue. it is just vibration when water flowing in tangki. just put some brick below the main pipe near tangki to fully support it, reduce the span (suspended pipe section).

The following could be the possibilities :-

1) The pipe turning not properly installed. There should be enough transition length from the bend / tee, usually 5D ( 5 times the diameter of the pipe ) length before any termination / next turn to allow transition of the turbulence to laminar flow of the fluid. The turbulence will cause the vibration & water hammering & will not be good to the pipeline in the long run - eventually the joint may give way & pipe may leaks. Additional pipe bracket / support may help to reduce the vibration.

2) The tank cover not properly closed & resulted the water noise to travel within the ceiling space unobstructed.
