Hi guys,
First post from a very desperate and panicking non-plumber! I noticed a dribble leak from the black plastic cartridge on the PRV under my kitchen sink. I tried to tighten it but must have twisted the wrong way and it shot off and water poured out. After turning off the mains I put the insert and spring back into the black cartridge and screwed it back in place. The leak has now stopped and the water seems to be running fine, but I'm worried it's messed up now. The guage is now showing static water pressure at 7 bar and 4 bar when the tap is running. No idea what it was before. Does this sound correct or have I well and truly messed it up?
If I have, is it urgent or could it wait until monday for a plumber? Thanks in advance for any advice at all!
