Monument Pipe Dry Testing Kit - One Size

The kit is designed for testing pipes up to a maximum pressure of 4 bar (approximately 58 psi).

No, this kit is specifically designed for *dry* testing of pipework using air or gas. It is not intended for wet pressure testing with water.

It is suitable for testing pipes carrying water, air, gas, and petroleum oil.

The kit features a 15 mm push-fit fitting for quick and easy connection to compatible pipe sizes. It also has a Schrader valve for connecting an air source.

Yes, the kit can be left on test for extended periods, for example, while flooring is being laid, to detect any accidental damage that might cause a pressure drop.

Testing hot and cold supplies separately ensures that the correct pipe is connected to the correct supply, preventing crossed connections which can cause functional issues.

The kit itself does not include an air pump. You will need to supply your own air source, such as a foot pump or air compressor.

Ensure all pressure has been released from the system. If the needle remains off zero, the gauge may need recalibration or replacement.

Ensure the pipe end is clean, square, and free from burrs. Check that the pipe is fully inserted into the fitting until it stops.

Check that the valve core is tight. If the leak persists, the valve may need replacement.

Verify the gauge is functioning correctly by testing against a known pressure source. Ensure the system being tested is properly sealed.
