Yeah, those little leaks can sneak up on you. I had a gasket go bad once and it dripped just enough to warp the cabinet floor—didn’t notice until it started smelling musty. I keep my spray pretty tame now, just enough to get the job done without blasting the fittings. Honestly, I’d rather replace a $2 washer than deal with water damage again...
Yeah, I’m with you—after reading about leaks and water damage, I’m super paranoid.
- I keep the spray on the lowest setting unless I really need more pressure.
- Still not sure if I’m being too cautious or if it’s just new homeowner nerves.
- Checked all my fittings twice... probably overkill, but I’d rather not risk it.
- Is it normal for the hose to feel a little warm sometimes? Just noticed that and now I’m wondering if that’s a problem or just the water heater doing its thing.
