Ensure the insert is fully seated in the pipe and that the pipe is fully inserted into the fitting. If the leak persists, replace the insert and/or fitting.

Difficulty inserting the pipe into the fitting.

Ensure the pipe end is clean and the insert is properly installed. Apply a small amount of lubricant to the pipe end, if necessary.
