Default Compression fittings...



Right now this is a bit of rhetorical question, but...

....how do you stop compression fittings from leaking? I
plumbed in some new stuff at the weekend, but lots of the
joints are now leaking. I resisted using PTFE tape on
every single joint, but is that the answer? PTFE wrapped
around every olive..?
