HOW TO FIND HIDDEN PLUMBING PIPES IN WALLS..PLUMBERS TIPS and TRICKS
M J Tiff Plumbing
Plumbing pipework problem on this job as i replace a radiator as its not heating the room enough, however we don't know where the plumbing pipes are in the wall...and we don't want to be drilling them. This is a plumbers nightmare but its Real World Plumbing
In this video, I’m replacing a radiator that was far too small for the room, but things don’t go quite as planned. The challenge? I can’t see where the plumbing pipework is running behind the wall — and drilling blindly could end in disaster. So I need to get a bit creative and use a little trick to figure out exactly where the pipes are hiding.
If you’ve ever wondered how to locate hidden plumbing without ripping your wall apart, or you’re planning a radiator replacement yourself, this one’s worth a watch.
