Water Inlet Hose Inspection
Periodically inspect all water inlet hoses for
water leaks, wear, cuts, corrosion and bulges.
Replace all hoses, if any sign of the above is
visible. All hoses should be replaced every
5 years to reduce the risk of hose failures.
When replacing hoses, refer to the Installation
Instructions for proper installation. Do not
overtighten or cross thread the fittings. Do not
allow the hose to rub against sharp objects.
Always ensure the hose fitting rubber gasket is
installed and free from water leaks when water
pressure is applied.
