code says a loss of less than 5lbs over 48 hours passes.

plumber installed copper lines. new construction. I would think no
loss would be the case. shouldn't pressure hold constant, say after
the first 24 hours and have no loss what so ever?I am taking in
outside temp, etc, for fluctuation changes but the pressure should be
more than 5lbs even after a 5 day?.

If it's losing pressure, where's it going?
That indicates a leak, is that leak acceptable?

Personally, I wouldn't want a leak in my water lines.
