Water tank noise...

    Can somebody please offer some advise on this problem...

    Bought a house a few months ago and did a renovations job -one of the things that needed to be done was to move the attic water tank to a different area of the attic.

    When we first bought the house we did notice noise coming from the water tank but didnt think much of it - since the tank has been moved the noise is very loud especially in on of the rooms.

    My plumber has advised that we get a jacket for the tank and this should muffle most of the noise - im not convinced.

    Can anyone offer any other advise on why this is happening and is there any other way that we could go about to dampen the noise? :confused:

    Thanks in advance...

    what type of noise is it? is it the noise of the water coming into the tank just? jacket wont help much but u should have one anyway and a lid. some ballvalves allow u to fit a silencer which could be like a piece of pipe which goes down into the water and fills the tank from the base rather than the top
