I apologise if this is a dumb question. my backflow preventer is leaking around the inlet side PVC elbow. The inlet and outlet pipes are not perfectly parallel, so it takes a little bit of effort to get the preventer screwed on. I don't know if this is causing stress and the leak. Is there a sealant that I could use or is leaking here indicating a backflow problem?

Re: Backflow preventer dripping
I don't see a back flow preventer...at least not anything I'm familiar with. Is it that giant brass thing? Can you point to the leak?
