Hi, normally, no water falling on the chrome flange of the wash basin pipe does not go back through the pipe to the overhead water tank. The flange is only a cover around the pipe, so any water there would usually run down the outside or into the wall opening if not sealed properly. The main thing is to dry it, check for any leaks from the tap or connection, and seal around the flange neatly if required. For plumbing repairs and leak checks in Hull and surrounding areas, contact HJZ Plumbing.

No, water cannot flow backward from the wash basin flange area to the overhead water tank.
