Title: Changing out City water connection
Post by: Jason Worman on February 11, 2021, 06:42:05 PM

Hi All

Got up this morning and noticed puddle on the ground outside by city water connection. Went back inside and crawled under the sink and base of interior wall was damp. Peeled back fabric around connection on wall and it is damp. Any tricks to changing out the connection? Has four screws on outside connecting to the exterior wall. Thank you in advance.

Jason,

it is a relatively easy process, pull the 4 screws then wiggle out of opening so you can access water connection on back of fill valve. Remove connection and install new one in reverse order. This is the valve, https://www.wholesalemarine.com/shurflo-pressure-regulating-fresh-water-fill-wall-mount.html?gclid=EAIaIQobChMI6sn4oMXi7gIVwxatBh0F1g3cEAQYASABEgKuAvD_BwE.
Hope this helps.

Jason,

depending where it is leaking, there are screws on the back of valve that you can tighten and sometimes stop the leak. If it is leaking around the hose connection swivel, then it will need to be replaced. Hope this helps.
