Correct. It’s been at the same level now for about 45 mins and I know it’s just a 2 min test so to me it’s all good?So it's staying steady / not draining over an hour ish ?

Ok.. so just been called back to custards reporting a huge leak (I left the run bunged and filled ready for inspection tomorrow as I wasn’t going to be there).Yep if it hasn't dropped after half an hour your golden
That makes sense.Maybe they do have there own run but teed before the manhole
This is why air testing is better
Gonna find my air test kit I think. Not sure the bungs I have will fit in the pan, they’re metal with a rubber ring in between and you turn a butterfly screw to push the rubber out to fit the pipeI just use a test bung/bag in the toilet
