Hi,
I've just had a new MDPE water supply pipe connectd to replace the old lead one. In routing the pipe through the house I've used about 6 various fittings (stop cock, tees, MDPE-copper adapters) and of the 14 joints, two have slow leaks.
I could cut off the ends of the pipes, replace the inserts and replace the fittings - but I expect only one of them is faulty. Is there a common cause of leaky MDPE fittings?
Thanks,
Mark
