Outdoor kitchen sink leak

[ramslovemopar]

Hi, I'm new to this forum. I just dewinterized my new 2017 Jay Flight 27bhs. Both lines going to the outdoor sink were leaking at the fittings. These fittings are plastic pex fittings connected with half inch hose using pex crimps. A pipe fitter I work with suggested buying brass fittings and using a little Teflon tape and regular lose clamps doubled up. This fix worked great and cost about 6 bucks. The factory install isn't good for the constant in and out when using the outdoor kitchen.

I know this is an old thread… but do you have pics of the fix?? I have the same issue

I also had this problem on my 27bhs. I swapped the straight fittings for 90 degree brass fittings. They seem to be holding better. The constant in and out still loosens the fitting. A quick tighten and the leak stops.

I have the same issue on my 2017 RV trailer with 90 degree fittings. I try to exchange the gaskets but the design is poor, especially when you use the outdoor kitchen often as we do.

Is anyone aware of a kind of full upgrade/ kit?

Could you share some photos?
