i have just put back a toilet upstairs
Before starting i had a pipe run for the toilet and an isolator valve attached to it
from the other end of the valve i put a small piece of pipe.
from the other end of that pipe i put a braided hose that leads to the inlet of the toilet.
the compression fitting 4 the bit of pipe from the isolator i hand tightened (pretty firmly) then marked and have tightened it a half turn. it seemed pretty firm
the one to the braided hose i got almost a full turn (maybe just over three quarters)
started the water up (nervously) and everything is hunky chunky. i feel that maybe i should have got another bit of a turn on the half turn one
should i be worried. nothing leaks-everythings cool. why i am worried about leaving the house
