"Hi this is Jon on behalf of Expert Village in this video clip I will be showing you how to inspect for leaks. There is a couple of areas that needs check for leaks first is at our connection point on our water shut off where the hose meets that water shut off you want to make sure that this is tight but not to tight and you always want to feel around there to see if there is anything dripping. The next leak point that we need to check is where our hose goes into the tank at the bottom this is that supply hose you just want to feel around it and make sure that there is no moisture or no water dripping. The last area that we need to check for leaks is where our tank sits on to the toilet base you would want to make sure that this is sealed correctly and that there is no water dripping. If you are still unsure if it is leaking or not you could always place a bowl underneath the connection points and leave it sit over night in the morning you could go check if any water has accumulated in the bowl."
