I WILL DO THIS EVERY TIME IF I CAN FOR A TUB SPOUT REPLACEMENT!
What happens here
Once the soldered joint has completely cooled, slowly turn on the hot and cold water supply to the tub. Observe the newly soldered joint carefully for any signs of water leaks. If no leaks are present, the joint is secure. Turn off the water once testing is complete.
Goal: After the solder joint has cooled, turn on the water supply to check for any leaks.
