    Replacing bathroom faucet
    I replaced my bathroom faucet but can't get the water supply line to stop leaking on the hot water side. It's a copper pipe and the cold water side hooked back up with no problems. Please help.

    In order to help we have to know what type of connection that you're attempting to hook up. Is it a compression connection? A nose cone connection? A flat washer connection? Have you tried to tighten it farther? Could it be that the nut's cross threaded on the faucet. We'll wait on your reply. Tom
