Water leaks can usually be traced back to screw connections that do not seal properly and allow water to penetrate through their screw threads. Typical situations are leaky shower heads, or fresh water connections to washing machines or dishwashers. Such situations usually do not call for the replacement of hoses, faucets or valves. You only need to unscrew the connection, wind a strip of tesa StopWater Tape around the screw thread and tighten the screw again. |
