Hi everyone. i just moved into a new house and the copper mains pipe that runs up a service space in the wall sounds like it is constantly running. I have changed the ball cock in the attic and checked it was shutting off and still i hear the noise. tried to trace main pipe as far as i can above ground and can't find and leaks.
