So I woke up this morning with what sounded like someone showering in my basement. Considering that my basement is a crawlspace, this did not seem likely. Then I found this.
So I shut off the water. I can now see the little part the water is spraying from.
As far as I can tell, with my vast lack of plumbing knowledge, it appears to be connected to an old water heater no longer in use. (I don't come down here much. And I've only lived here two years.) Almost as if it just routes through. I could be 100% wrong of course. But here's a picture of it from further away.
So the question is, can I just replace that little nub, or just cap that off with something? The piece that's on there has a little hole the water is spraying off of, so I would think something without the hole would do. Or can I seal that off since I don't think it's actually being used at all?
