Water Hammer Arrestor
As shown, it has been established that the preferred location
for the water hammer arrestor is at the end of the branch line
between the last two fixtures served.
The location of the water hammer arrestor shown above applies
to branch lines that do not exceed 20 ft. (6m) in length, from the
start of the horizontal branch line to the last fixture supply on
this branch line. When the branch line exceeds the 20 ft. (6m)
length, an additional water hammer arrestor should be used.
This practice is best defined by two rules which have been
established to cover the placement of water hammer arrestors.
