The 110mm waste pipe comes straight down from the ustairs toilet into the ceiling void,then branches to the left running into an internal soil stack,boxed in corner,and out to drain. As well as branching to the left in ceiling void it also branches to the right approx a foot or so, where a reducing boss is fitted to take the 40 mm bath waste pipe.
The old boss leaked and i changed it for a new one. It leaked when the toilet was flushed,just a slight drip but enough to do ceiling damage over time. The leak came from the fit of the boss into 110 mm pipe, and not the fit of the bath waste pipe into boss. Is there silicone i can apply like i was thinking of tec 7 as there doesnt seem to be a burr on the inside dia of 110 mm pipe and the leak def doesnt seem to be running from anywhere else that i can see. All help appreciated.
