Hi all and thanks for reading,
I need some help with compression fittings.
I installed a water filter for my fridge and a faucet on the sink.
I used 1/4" copper tubing and B&K 1/4" compression fittings from Lowe's. The fittings do not have separate nuts and ferrules. They are one assembly.
I cannot get these to stop leaking.
I cut the copper with a good cutter.
I just snugged the nut and anticipated a slight leak. I figured I would slowly tighten them until they stopped. They never stopped leaking.
Please help.
Thanks!
