1. When assembling galvanized pipe sections, how tight do they have to be? Is it how tight or the Teflon tape that makes the seal?
2. 1st elbow of a run of pipe I just installed has a small amount of seepage, about 2 tbs in 24 hours. It is on the HARD water side of a water softener feed line located in a garage. It would be a pita to remove everything to redo the connection. I know what I should do, but what are the chances the minerals in the hard water will seal the leak over time?
