Troubleshooting
Leaking connection
Ensure the Flexiclip seal is properly engaged on both the square and round pipe ends. Check for debris that might be preventing a full seal. Inspect seals for damage and replace if necessary.
Difficulty fitting pipes
Ensure the ends of the pipes are clean and free from obstructions. A small amount of silicone lubricant can help pipes slide into place more easily. Verify you are using the correct size pipes for the adaptor.
