Troubleshooting

The fitting is leaking.

Ensure the pipe is fully inserted into the fitting. Check the connection by twisting the pipe, feeling the rumble, and re-securing if necessary. If the leak persists, replace the fitting.

The pipe won't insert easily.

Make sure the pipe end is cut squarely and free of burrs. Ensure the pipe is compatible with Hep2O fittings. If needed, slightly chamfer the pipe edge.

Difficulty demounting the fitting.

Make sure you are using the correct size HepKey for the fitting. Ensure the HepKey is properly engaged before attempting to remove the fitting. If it is still difficult, gently wiggle the pipe while depressing the collar with the HepKey.
