Ok.. here's what we're trying to figure out: I live in the basement of a Victorian conversion. There are 4 flats and the main supply pipe enters the building through my flat.
There is water permanently flowing through this pipe. 3pm, 3am, always. This is very annoying.
There also appears to be a dripping from the 3rd floor flat's overflow pipe (above my front door) which is not constant. Sometimes there's a puddle at my front door, sometimes it's dry.
Here's what my plumber has ascertained:
The overflow pipe in the 3rd floor flat's cistern is dry inside even when the pipe is actually spitting out water. But the overflow pipe does not APPEAR to be attached to anything other than the toilet...
There appears to be no water tank in the roof of the 4th floor flat.
The 3rd floor flat is the only one which has an overflow pipe.
All the taps, washing machines and toilets are functioning correctly in the other 3 flats.
Someone, please, anyone.. can you suggest what might be causing this annoying water flow!
Yours, in desperation
Simon
