Does anyone know if these Hepworth fittings can be removed from the hoses and then remounted, and if so how does one do so? Thanks everyone  |

you should find that you can grab ahold of the brass bit, perhaps with pliers, then twist the large diameter grey plastic bit, and turn this anti clockwise looking from the plastic grey pipe side, then twist the grey plastic pipe whilst pulling the pipe out of the fitting, reassembly is more or less a reverse procedure.
Hope that works for you

Hope that works for you CB Thanks again, worked like a charm just as you said and no leaks after reassembly! Interestingly, after pressurizing the system I checked all the sinks and found another Hep20 fitting I paid a "professional" to sort out leaking due to the plastic cap not being all the way on (wouldn't tighten any further). I'll take it apart and reseat it next week.  |
