opened and closed it twice and still dripping one side, looks like a long night with small dish

you will need to wait a while andy as there will be water in pipes when valves closed and under pressure

Hi

The common type of valves are Ball and Gate

the ball turns 90 degrees to close

but the gate valves keep turning until they

stop or you think they are closed which is not always

the case If they are gate valves add more pressure to

the handle ie stillsons or work the handle to open and shut

postion trying to get it fully closed

its a 22mm T- piece going into baxi pump. Screwed right in tight as f_ck but still dripping at pump connection. No got a big enough spanner to try and tighten a bit at connection.
