Leaking from flow valve connection
#1

A new flow valve was replaced a year ago and now the water connection pipe that fits into the bottom of the tank is leaking. I checked to see if the connection was tightened; it was tightened suffuciently. What's the best way to fix this problem? We had considerable water damage in the basement from the undetected leak.
Thank you in advance.

The non-pro way (but it works) is to turn the water off, take the nut loose, smear a little silicone caulk on around it, and tighten it back up.
Good Luck!
