HiOnly fitted 2 days ago and the little red plastic end has pulled out and the little horrible springy barb bit has come out too. It seems Impossible to get back in! Has anyone ever repaired one of these?This happened with my last one too.Anyone know of a better more robust alternative I can't afford to keep replacing them like this!!
Hi Alexemail sent.Pride Clean thanks for the link but it look just like the Gardiner tap how are the brass barbs fitted in?It looks as if they could pull out just as easily.
i dont think im overly rough with these , but i seem to break them very quick toat the moment mine is absolutley p ing water out even though the hose is put right in on both sides
If you yank the pole hose to hard the inserts may pull out. I pull from the minibore hose, not the pole hose.
You can buy the JG valves for 8mm tubing, although more expensive than the 1/4" they won't need to be modified:http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Official-John-Guest-Speedfit-Pushfit-Shut-Off-Valve-Inline-Stop-Tap-Fridge-/271221857057?pt=UK_DIY_Materials_Plumbing_MJ&var=&hash=item3f26151b21
What a crackin idea Barryy absolute bargain at £4.43 +p+p might get myself a few , Bought a rectus 26 of ebay last week and the pole hose insert end snapped clean off from valve body after dropping it . Will just have to get to B&Q and get some ro size hose . Mike
