Hi All,

I have water heater that is leaking from the cold inlet pipe and it's hot water. It's coming up from the hole where the cold goes in. There is some type cap on the tank so i can't see any further down. Any clues as to what it might be, is fixable or shot. Bradford white purchase on 10/2013.

Thanks,

Madison

Leak=shot probably.

You could try pulling the nipple, and put in a new on with pipe dope and tape. But you are probably replacing..
