Liff limefigher leak
After noticing a wet bathroom floor it appears to be coming from the "Liff
Limefighter" under the sink area There is no obvious leak from either end so maybe theres a small hole in the cartridge itself? Are they easy to buy from plumbers merchants still, as it was there when I moved in 15 years ago! Pic at http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=j08qx2&s=3 |

You can get replacements at about £50 (eg http://tinyurl.com/3x6kpp ) or you can simply use a short length of copper pipe to replace it without noticing any difference. |
