Is there a quick cheap patch? I am totally broke. I was wondering if there is a plumbing tape or something that can buy me some time.
Thanks

The two water intake pipes dont have valves on them. Could anyone give me a tip to maybe other location where it might be. I got the power off to it but its leaking into the insulation now and i need to cut the water to it asap. Thanks.

We have one of those rubber spray hoses for our sink and it ended up leaking quite a lot. So I thought I could turn off the pipe that the hose is connected to. The problem is that this turned off the hot water tap as well so I decided to go out and buy a compression blanking cap to just cap off the hose connection. So i removed the hose, attached the blanking cap quite tightly with a spanner and turned the water back on. But there is still a leak coming out from that connection and I don’t know why? Do I need to attach something else? And please don’t just tell me to tighten it, because it is as tight as it can go.
Thanks

Any reasons why a water heater, made in 2003 would be leaking?Looks like it’s coming from the bottom.. And, it says it has a 9 yr warranty..Does that usually mean they might actually pay to fix it? This is just a parts warranty, I understand we would pay the labor…
Thanks

My old hot water heater was leaking at the T&P valve. We tried everything we were told to do and it still was leaking so we decided to buy a brand new one. We installed that one and it is also leaking at the T&P valve. I was told by a plumber to use a gauge and check the water pressure going into my house. We did that last night and it was right around 100. One plumber told me I need to install an expansion chamber and another plumber told me to install a pressure reducing valve and another told me to install a pressure regulator. (I work around plumbers). Any advice on which on to install? And where do we install it? On the cold water line going to hot water heater? On underground main going into my house? Underneath the ground on the water line?

It is in an outside closet which shares a wall with the garage. The plywood under the heater is wet, and the concrete in the garage is damp. I live in an area that has very hard water and don’t know if this could be the problem. Any ideas on how to troubleshoot this? There is a lot I can do (as a single woman) but I know nothing about water heaters! Any help out there would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Name of device; where to buy

My toilet “runs”, needs a new flapper. That’s not the problem. The problem is, about a week ago, after the toilet was “running” for a few minutes (on the second floor), water started pouring through the ceiling under the toilet. I moved a trash can, shut off the water to the toilet, the water stopped coming through the ceiling…then I turned the water back on, and I haven’t been able to reproduce the problem, or figure out what the heck went wrong. Very weird.
