Product Information

Full details

The Hep2O Keyless Flexi Tap Connector is designed for professional plumbers and DIY enthusiasts who require a reliable, flexible solution for connecting taps to domestic water or central heating systems. Its primary benefit is the patented In4sure joint recognition technology that provides tactile confirmation of a secure fit, though users should note that while it is tool-free for demounting, standard plumbing practices for pipe preparation remain essential for a leak-free installation.

FAQs

Is this connector suitable for central heating?

Yes, it is rated for use in both domestic water distribution and central heating systems.

Do I need a special tool to remove the pipe?

No, the keyless design allows you to demount the fitting by hand by rotating the locking nut.

Can I use this with copper pipes?

Yes, it is fully compatible with copper pipes, provided they are clean and free from burrs.

What is In4sure joint recognition?

It is a patented design feature that provides a noticeable tactile 'grab' when the pipe is fully and correctly inserted.

Is the KL125A-15 WRAS approved?

Yes, the product holds WRAS approval, making it safe for use with domestic drinking water.

How long is the flexi hose?

The hose has a total length of 300mm.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty inserting the pipe into the connector

Ensure the pipe end is deburred and clean. If it still resists, check that the demounting nut is in the fully 'open' position.

Minor weeping at the pipe connection

Remove the pipe, inspect the O-ring for debris or damage, ensure the pipe surface is not scratched, and re-insert firmly.

Cannot demount the fitting

Ensure you are rotating the locking nut fully as per the markings on the connector body to release the grab ring teeth.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Tool-free demounting makes future adjustments simple
  • Clear physical feedback ensures connections are secure
  • Highly flexible hose simplifies installation in confined spaces
  • WRAS approved for drinking water safety
  • Compatible with both copper and PEX piping

Cons

  • Requires proper pipe preparation to ensure the O-ring seals correctly
  • Only available in a fixed 300mm length
  • More expensive than basic static compression fittings

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation is straightforward: ensure the pipe end is cut square and is free from burrs or sharp edges that could damage the internal seals. Simply push the pipe into the connector until you feel the joint recognition mechanism engage. To demount, rotate the locking nut in the direction indicated on the fitting to release the grab ring. For long-term maintenance, avoid using jointing compounds or excessive heat near the fitting. Always ensure the pipe is fully supported and that the hose is not kinked during final installation to prevent restricted flow.
