was at a friends house in Wiltshire the weekend,3story house toilet on each floor flushed the loo there middle floor and it made a very long loud noise.
Is that pressure too high on cold main as it fills cistern?
Thanks in advance
 
You can just change the diaphragm washer inside the fill valve.

The noise is because the washer is vibrating with flow of water. Reducing the flow with the tap will lessen the sound.

When we moved into our house in 2016, the electric water heater popped loudly when heating. After awhile, I researched and realized that it was likely due to limescale and/or other sediment buildup. I flushed it multiple times, but never got it to stop popping, so I eventually decided to replace...
