Marty,
Is there an "expansion tank" in your house? If so, drain the water from
it (it should have an easy drain valve.)
The expansion tank should be a small 10 gal or so tank (like one on a
portable compressor) that has one water line run it.)
Note, I'm not an expert, but this works for me.
Enjoy!

[Shop-talk] Loud Toilet
I have a 12 year old house. Master bathroom is at the opposite end of the
house from the water feed line. A few months ago the toilet in the master
bath
started hammering when flushed. Like a water hammer shutter noise. I
replace
the fill valve in the tank over the weekend, and it got worse??? As the
float
is dropping to start filling the tank is when all the shuttering/hammering
takes place. Any ideas?
Marty
