    Default Internal wet area flood testing.

    Hi. How is everyone.
    Just curious as to how flood testing the membrane on internal wet areas is carried out on your side of the world. I have been having problems trying to find a decent plug that i can use to block the floor waste outlet without damaging the membrane. Any suggestions on where i could find a decent plug and any techniques that you have found to make the job easier would be appreciated.

    Cheers

    Hi Jay.
    Yeah it could be a puddle flange depending on the situation.
