Whats the best / easiest to use / most convenient pressure tester on the market???????????
 
You can make one for a few quid. Or buy one for a tenner that has A 3/4" end for attaching to a washing machine outlet.

Remember to take static and dynamic pressure.
 
air testing is the better joshi eh? iv been taught to turn the water on and fix the leaks as u c them lol..
 
sorry, danny, iv mis typed this

i meant for testing for leaks! air pressure tester, sorry lad! appreciate ur help anyway!!
 
Attach to washing machine outlet or mains fed outside tap.

Open outlet and check static pressure. Then run one or two mains pressure outlets and check dynamic pressure.

You will need a weir cup/flow cup for checking flow rates. £20 from Screw Fix...can come with a thermometor in built to check temp' rises and flow rates in combi boilers.
