[meehan1]

can yopu please elaborate on ball valve excuse my ignorance

 

[seco services]

the ballvalve on the end of the mains water pipe is it shutting off fully ?

 

[meehan1]

ball valve is shutting off fully -largest tank of the two is over flowing -having had another look water level is just near pipe which could be the reason for continous drip .any tips to reduce water level to below this overflow pipe please

 

[seco services]

lower the ball to its lowest level.
or bend the brass rod slightly.

 

[meehan1]

have lowered water level and bent bar slightly which has stopped over flow pipe leaking ,Many thanks for your tips and assistance .

 

[seco services]

keep eye on it.
if it still fills you may have water back filling the tank.
