Hi! New here. Appreciate your advice.
I'm trying to DIY install an undersink water filter system. I have a dedicated cold water pipe for it but the water filter system that I bought comes with a connection that splits flow to allow for both a cold water tap and the filter tap. I'm wanting to cap off that valve so water only flows to the filter. I bought a compression cap for this purpose (see photos) - is this the best way to go about this? I worry that it might leak. Should I use teflon tape or put a rubber o-ring or something in it to make a better seal? Is there something else you'd recommend?
Thanks for your insights!
