Restore Water and Verify Repair

What happens here

With the hose patch and clamp securely in place, slowly turn the hot water (or cold, depending on which pipe was repaired) back on to the pipe. Allow the water to run for a few minutes. While the water is flowing, meticulously check the repaired area for any signs of leakage, such as drips or seeping water, to ensure the temporary fix is holding effectively. It is important to note that this is a temporary solution, and a more permanent repair or replacement of the galvanized pipe should be planned for the future.

Goal: Confirm the repair is holding and the pipe is no longer leaking
