I have a pipe on my return side with a very slight leak at a fitting. It's where a 1 1/2" pipe meets another, at the joint. The leak is slight.. I'd say if it lost a cup of water a day, that's a lot.
Is there a way to seal this with some kind of tape? I've tried saturating the pipe in the blue wet PVC cement and it seems to help. but I still see water there occasionally.
I'd hate to have to replace this whole piece of pipe if there's something quick and easy I can do.
