Hi, I need to pick brains about leak prevention or control.
Much of the pipework in my house is over 10 years old. In the five years I have lived here I have had three pipe bursts. The failures have been in J Guest push on fittings. The nut part has split on each occasion. Luckily we have been in the house on each occasion but that has not prevented some expensive repair bills. So I am considering what I could do to help with future problems. I have a leakbot fitted but it does not respond to a sudden burst - to the leakbot that looks like a tap being turned on.
I see various systems for remote turning off the supply - does anyone have any experience of these things? Or maybe there is another approach?
Thanks in anticipation for any advice.
Mike
