Troubleshooting
Tap leaks at the connection point
Ensure the 3/4" BSP threading is clean and free of debris. Tighten the tap connection further, or consider using a thread sealant tape (PTFE tape) for a more secure, leak-proof seal.
Hose connector does not click or attach securely
Check that the hose is the correct size (1/2" or 5/8"). Ensure the hose end is clean and undamaged. Verify that the collar on the hose connector can move freely.
Water flow is weak or inconsistent
Check for kinks in the hose. Ensure the main water supply valve is fully open. Inspect the tap and connectors for any internal blockages.
Connector leaks water from the hose connection
Ensure the hose is fully seated in the connector and has clicked into place. The internal grip teeth may need to be cleaned or checked for damage. Try a different hose to rule out a hose-end issue.
