Small leak from the boss connecting the sink waste to the downpipe #946

Open amcewen opened 6 years ago

I thought we already had an issue about this, but I can't find it now...

There are occasional puddles on the kitchen floor under the fridge, which are coming from a small leak where the sink/dishwasher waste pipe connects to the downpipe.

The contractors fitting out the user research lab have said they'll fix it for us sometime this week - they reckon the boss should be solvent-welded to the downpipe, rather than siliconed on like ours is. It'll cost us a couple of quid for the new boss.

Did we get this fixed in the end?

amcewen commented 5 years ago

I don't think so. @goatchurchprime has said he'll have a look next time it rains to see if we can work out which bit of the boss is leaking, to then guide how we fix it.

We have had plenty of rain since the last comment, has it helped diagnose and fix the problem?

There was a drip coming from the top of the pipe. A plumber looked at it recently but we're not sure if he did it. Didn't seem to be rain related. There's also definitely water coming from the fridge but I'll create a new issue for that at #1382

Wondering if this is fixed now, I think we re-plumbed stuff since the last comment.
