Under Sink Water Drip

[Flyer]

The connector under the sink is for the water filter. Every once in a while it drips from where the tube goes into the "T" (arrow). Any ideas how to tighten this connection up?

Looks like those are push in fittings. Relief the press from the system and remove the line by pushing on the ring to release the line. Check for cuts on the line where it seats in the Tee if there is enough line cut the end off and push it back in.

Best advice I can think of. Make certain that the tube is pushed fully into the receiver. The 'O' ring must be in place correctly. I can't tell from your picture if this fitting will unscrew. If you can get the fitting opened you can check for damage to the 'O' ring. But, the above answer is on the money.

Yes what they said is correct, also if you do decide to pull the hose from the TEE make sure you push the hose in hard prior to trying to pull it out. You need to not only check the line for cracks but make sure it is cut straight across. If not then this may be part of the problem or what caused the problem. You may also need to replace the TEE and the line.
