Troubleshooting
Hose is leaking at connection point.
Ensure the union nut is tightened correctly. Check that the pressed-in seal is present and properly seated. Verify that the 3/8 inch male fitting is screwed in straight and not cross-threaded.
Water flow is restricted.
Check if the hose is kinked or severely bent, which can impede flow. Ensure the connections are not blocked internally. If the issue persists, the valve or tap may be the source of the restriction.
Hose seems stiff or difficult to maneuver.
While durable, extreme cold can reduce flexibility. Allow the hose to warm to room temperature. Avoid forcing the hose into sharp bends that could damage the internal structure.
