hello plumbers,
i have an RO filter line 1/4" plastic tubing attached to an angle stop via compression fitting. This is the supply line to my RO filter. the compression fitting is leaking ( annoying seep). i have tried replacing the nut and compression sleeve (recut the line nice and square) but it dtill seeps. I do not think the problem is my angle stop which is pretty new. My question is should i use a plastic compression sleeve and tube insert with the metal angle stop? right now i have a brass sleeve and plastic tube insert. should i be using a brass tube insert in the plastic tube???
hope this makes sense?????
