    Hi Crossmark,

    Shut off your home's main water supply valve. Find the lowest faucet on the property — it's usually on the first floor somewhere outside or in the basement — and turn it on to completely drain all water from the pipes. As the water drains from the pipes, air automatically replaces it. If the pipe is an exposed one ( I had this problem just recently ) You can use a "Pipe Strap" which you can get at any hardware store near you! This will secure the pipe and keep it from rattling when the water goes on. Hope this helps!

    If the pipe is low enough lean some thing heavy against it. If it is on your loft say. U could use a house brick if u get the just. It its on view the bracket would suffice. I am like anything for an easy life.
