Troubleshooting
Fitting does not 'click' or seal properly
Ensure the pipe is fully inserted to the depth stop. Check the pipe end for damage, burrs, or contamination. Verify the pipe diameter is correct for the fitting.
Difficulty demounting the fitting
Ensure you are using the correct hand-demounting technique. Push the fitting body towards the pipe while pulling the pipe and fitting apart. Ensure no undue stress is on the connection during demounting.
Slow water flow after installation
Check for potential blockages within the pipework or at connection points. Ensure the correct pipe size is used and the fitting is not obstructing flow.
Leak detected at connection
Demount the fitting and inspect both the pipe end and the fitting seal for damage or debris. Re-insert the pipe firmly, ensuring the 'click' is heard. If the leak persists, replace the fitting.
