I re-arranged a load of pipework over the weekend in preparation for putting a new sink in the utility. One of the new connections is a soldered 'T' junction on 15mm pipe and I have a very slow leak from one of the connections. When I say slow, it takes around 1 minute for each drop to form and drip into the old ice-cream container I have placed below it.
Now for the obvious question, is there any way of stopping this leak short of disconnecting the 'T' piece and inserting a new one. This is not very desirable as I think I would have to disconnect at least one other fitting in order to get sufficient movement in the pipes.
Incidentally the leak seems to be from the bottom of the pipe, I reckon I could probably have dropped some solder onto the joint had the hole been at the top but my soldering isn't up to doing this at the bottom unless someone knows some useful tricks ?
Thanks.
