I've been planning on replacing a section of copper pipe that has a very small slow leak.
It has a constant drop of moisture on it, but only "drips" every half hour or so, if that. As you can see from
the pics it is corroded. The problem is, it's in a tricky spot, right at the joint with several other joints
located nearby. I'm trying to figure out how to replace this without changing out more
pipe (and all those joints) than I need to. Anybody have a simple solution? Even if I replace the
T-Joint I think I'll have to cut the end off that corroded pipe. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Notes:
-This is in my concrete sump-pump room and isn't causing damage.
-Been this way since I bought the house 3 months ago.
-On the cold, unsoftened water line.
