Any bright ideas?
I cut strips of kitchen paper and tie it around every possible leaking
joint.
I live in a hard water area so even if the water evaporates I get
calcium deposits after a few weeks or months, these can be felt by the
paper going slightly hard and discoloured.
Handy tip, ta.
Two litres sounds a lot. How do you measure it?
I can't directly - I can only estimate by how long I turn the filling
loop on to restore the pressure, and compare that time with filling a
container at the kitchen tap. We have high water pressure (~6 bar), so
it can shift a fair amount in a few seconds.
Water meter? Ours has a 1 pulse/litre which would give a cross-check
when averaged over a few days.
