So I overheard a conversation today at a plumb centre and I wanted to know if it was true or not - it doesn't seem feasible to me but I'm new so what the hell do I know! Lol
So the guy was saying, when you TT after you've amended or extended any domestic gas pipework, if the pipework is still hot the reading on the gauge will fluctuate. So the reading may say there's a drop when in fact there isn't.
In my head it's an excuse cos he prob gets leaks and justifies it to himself.
So before I thank badly of him, I wanted to check out the facts.... Is this true?? Do you get readings that fluctuate if the pipework is still warm? I thought that's what the stabilisation minute was for?
