I noticed it comes with a fitting for tubing to be slid over and then crimped. Can that be removed? Because mine is already crimped and screws on.

Yes. The fitting is secured with a nut, take the nut off and remove the existing fitting, place the nut on your line (or there might be one on the line already) and screw it back on. I can't guarantee it will be the right fitting, but I would expect it to be pretty standard.

The fitting screws on. It can be removed. Your existing one should fit right on. Cheers.

Slightly bend the tubing and you should be able to pull it out of the slot. Tubing is green in the picture.

I had this problem and just decided to screw the cover, the tailpiece which is supposed up slide on is what you are referring to I assume. Mine would just fall off because it wasn't crimped properly. You can try using pliers to adjust the edges of both the cover and the base if its important to you.

With the proper tool it could be crimp only. I use plyers to crimp and than solder the connections.

Yes but only before you crimp it. Once crimped it is easy to remove but you will need a new coil. I love using this for training packets and product catalogs.

No, the plastic tubing and the unit fittings are integrated. This replaced another similar unit, so the cold water line was already tapped--no fittings involved. I've been pleased with the unit, the faucet is higher quality than you sometimes find with these things, and so far it just works. Haven't changed out the filter yet, but it looks pretty easy.

I have not removed mine but once you unscrew it it should come apart easily. I have iron a 200' Glamour hose that weighs a ton. I would spray a little WD40 on the screws and let it sit over night then use a good screwdriver the longer the better for more leverage. And once these screws come out yo just give the hose a good tug and it should come out. This products crimps the hose so you may want to make sure it is out of the sun before trying to pull it out of the crimp. The hotter the hose the more it will expand and may be harder to release. Worse case is you have to cut it off and we are only talking an inch of material that you would loose. I have not removed mine but once you unscrew it it should come apart easily.

Have you used a crimping/stripping tool to "clean" and prep the cable first? This is a critical step. the connectors slide on relatively easily once the end of the cable has been prepared. Other than that I have no ideas.

YesThere are two holes in the lower crimped area if the yellow side where there is a small square jutting out, and it's the same on the red side. It screws in real easy. Wish I could send a picture so you could see the area I am talking about.

Redondo Jon is exactly correct, the barbed fittings are in the hose and then crimped metal is on the outside to hold them in place, it comes shipped this way. This means that you need NPT (National Pipe Thread) 1/4 inch quick connect fittings for most applications, these just screw onto the fittings on the hose already.

Unfortunately screw the top where you put the water in at and dump it . One of my main fitting broke the first time I used it :(.And the company won't back it up.

Wish I could help but mine is brand new. I always make sure I keep it lubricated so it doesn't dry out or rot, etc. I heard it's interchangeable with westinghouse parts...maybe you can call them and see. If nothing else..but some rubber weather stripping and just cut it to fit and put the screws back thru it.

There are four eye screws at the bottom to remove the interior assembly. Then there are two push in plugs to remove the tube from the interior base. It would appear that you only need to push the two plugs to remove the tube but for me the plugs failed. I had to remove two more screws from the bottom assembly to get to the plugs and put them back in place.

Mine came with a teeny tiny screwdriver packaged with the screw. Popped right open. unfortunately, I didn't realize the metal part is imbedded in the plastic. I already had the metal part and had to melt it out of the plastic in order to install my key components.

I agree with Joseph in that it sounds like the tubing may not be firmly seated into the coupling. Cleaning the end of the tubing with emery paper or fine steel wool first should also help.

I had exactly the same thing happen with mine when I assembled it. I increased the torque & tightened the bolts so that they sunk into the tubing - the result was perfect. I think that they need to explain that these need to be super tight, so they have to actaully squeeze the tubing in a little. Hope this helps. Regards, PP.By the way, I am sure that you did this, but make sure that the washers are in the right way round, as they are the same anlge as the tubing.Good luck.

The tubing is different. I think maybe if you cut the tubing it might work, but I haven't tried that. Otherwise the parts are compatible.
