The invention relates to a method and apparatus for preventing water damages due to leaks in plumbing in buildings, where water and/or heating lines are placed inside mounting and casing tubes and where connection boxes are used for connecting water fixtures to these lines. At least one of the connection boxes (1) is provided with an outlet tube (3) for connecting it to the drain. Each mounting and casing tube (5) is watertightly connected to said connection box at one end and the other end is sealed. The connection box (1) serves as an inspection box for detecting leaks. It is watertight and provided with connection elements (2) for connecting mounting and casing tubes (5). The apparatus further comprises sealing elements attached to the other ends of the mounting and casing tubes (5). The leakage water moves through the mounting and casing tube to said connection box and via an outlet tube (3) to the drain. |
