I was under the impression that you pressure test on full installs and small use is not necessarily done with pressure test.

I know where you're coming from but the existing pipe was 22mm plastic so just a few fittings to the flexi from the bath taps.

I understand. Not a lot you can do other than work with what is already there

I bet the pipe is scored, how else could it dribble unless the o ring is damaged.

Ever seen at merchants the straight lengths of plastic pipes being dragged by staff or plumbers along the ground?
😱

I agree but I wonder why it was over a month before it dribbled?

Hot was it?

Yes it was the hot but the bath had not been run for over a week before it leaked
