    More good work, Tom. I've never really understood why marking the pipe makes any difference in relation to the warranty on a pressfit joint. Presumably, during an investigation they would cut the fitting in half or whatever and it would be clear then whether the pipe had been pushed in far enough before it was pressed.

    • @PlumbLikeTom
      @PlumbLikeTom 21 час назад

      I never really understood that either, like you say if the fitting was cut apart it would be clear if the pipe was in all the way, thanks for watching as always mate, have a great weekend 👍

    • @PlumbLikeTom
      @PlumbLikeTom День назад

      This was just on normal mains, I think the tprv valve connection had been leaking and it had just rotted out. I don't think these cylinders are fully stainless as a magnet sticks inside so when you get a leak this can happen, have a great weekend mate 👍
