Do I need any special tools to install this fitting?

No special tools are required. The push-fit design makes installation straightforward. However, a pipe cutter is recommended for a clean cut.

Can I reuse this fitting?

Yes, the fitting is designed to be demountable and reusable. However, inspect the fitting for damage before reusing.

What type of pipe can I use with this fitting?

This fitting is compatible with both plastic and copper pipes.

Where can I use this fitting?

This fitting can be used in various plumbing applications, including hot and cold water systems. It's suitable for domestic and light commercial use.

What should I do if the fitting is leaking after installation?

Turn off the water supply immediately. Check that the pipe is fully inserted, the nut is properly tightened, and the pipe insert is correctly installed (if using plastic pipe). If the leak persists, you may need to replace the fitting.

Are pipe inserts required?

Yes, with all plastic pipes the relevant manufacturer’s pipe insert is required.

Troubleshooting

The fitting is leaking.

Ensure the pipe is fully inserted, the nut is properly tightened, and the pipe insert is correctly installed (if using plastic pipe). Check for any damage to the fitting or pipe.

The fitting is difficult to connect.

Make sure the pipe end is clean and free of debris. Ensure the pipe is cut squarely. Apply a small amount of lubricant to the pipe end if necessary.

The fitting won't disconnect.

Unlock the nut and push the collet towards the body of the fitting, then pull the pipe to release.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
