How would you test this? Remove the tap and apply water through the
"wrong" end with a hose pipe and if it comes out the drain hole, the
first valve is broken; if it comes out the "back" of the tap, both are
broken?
I've never heard of testing them before. Is it done on installation or
is it supposed to be done annually?
I don't seriously believe anyone does, hence the sarcy comment.
