I have a electric mobile home water heater that is leaking at fitting where the hot water connects. The connection is on the side 2 inches from the top. The connection is plastic a friend told me to put some plumber putty around the connection.

I was reading on the container of the plumbers putty and it stated not to use on plastic.

I have seen the spray foam but did not know if I could use this because of the hot water temp being 120 degrees.

Any Ideals the water heater is only a year old and I hate to replace it. The water heater was not purchaced by me so I doubt warrenty would be good.
