Sink drain to tank connection loose and leaking
I have just found that the final 6" length of 1.5" diameter ABS drain pipe from the small sink was loose (and slightly leaking onto the top of the tank) where it fitted into the top of the underneath tank inlet. (Another example of bad construction !) The inlet to the tank is skewed to the side, so that I can't push the tube right down into it from the floor above.
I thought about a smaller diameter tube, but then it has to fit into a 1.5"Diam 90 degree elbow at the other end of it's 6" length, so I don't have a lot of length to play with.
Or dripping glue/sealant down around the sides of the pipe onto the top of the tank ?
Or if I could get pipe that had a screw at on end, I might be able to screw it down more into the tank connection ?
Or......?
The absolute approach is to take the tank out, but the tank has another top connection to the shower at the other end, i.e. I could make double trouble for myself !!
Any suggestion gratefully accepted !! Thanks.
