Identify source of leak
#1
I have water leaking from bathroom tub through ceiling of room below. I don't know where the leak originates i.e. drain or supply. What is my best bet to identify.

If it comes out the ceiling below fairly soon, you might want to try putting about an inch of water in the tub (drain closed) and add some food coloring. Open the drain to allow the tub to drain and if colored water shows up downstairs, then you know it is the drain piping.
Post pack if you need some more help.
