Water Test
Water testing must be carried out properly. Testing should simulate as closely as possible natural rainfall. Duration of the test must be approximately 15 minutes. This is because some leaks do not form immediately. Avoid powerful jet spraying, as this does not accurately simulate natural conditions.Materials required:
