Must admit it is a bit of a gray area, although pipes are there they should not leak. Its a bit like saying the socket is fitted on the ground floor with the bathroom above on the first floor.

maybe water tight but a cold pipe will generate condensation and could drip.

how many times you seen a damp cupboard under sink but no leak?

not a fault, but concerns care home for mentally challenged children. on being called to do a pir on the home , i found that the last pir was only 12 months previous. i pointed out to the home owner that pir's were usually 5 years, but she replied "as its a care home, it has to be done every 12 months" i can find no evidence to support this , so who is right?

I would say she is probably right
The time between PIRs can be driven by the state of the installation, the guidance, the request of the person ordering the work,local authority rules, or perhaps many other interested parties

Thanks for that. I'm not complaining, it's extra work for me, just seems a bit pointless on an installation that is only 2 years old.
