What do you need to know about soundproofing water pipes?
Pipe noise insulation is a crucial element of complete soundproofing. You can fill the area around the pipes with sound absorbing material, but unless you soundproof the water pipes themselves with a pipe soundproofing wrap, you are still going to hear the noise of water sloshing around.
