Di vessel riser & head...

[SPCleaning]

Can i ask you guys if you have any water leaking from your di bottles, i mean 2 bottles mean 4 connections, i had to put mine in a bucket, although not leaking atm. do you use hozelock connections?

Yes, is the short answer.

When I change resin, I unscrew the hoselock connectors and wrap some PTFE tape around the threads before screwing them back in. This appears to be where the water seeps from, and it isn't alot. I have considered changing to John Guest fittings but have not done anything about it yet.

...and if the actual connectors are leaking.....

On any threads which fit to the DI head wrap with plenty of PTFE tape. I find B&Q's own brand connectors the best (cheaper blue ones which a £1 each). I replace the rubber O rings regular & with this have no leaking connectors./emoticons/wink.png Rubber O rings can be had in hundreds off ebay for peanuts.

I think my hoselock connectors drip a little, but it doesnt bother me, as my di vessel is not in my car.(wish it was a van, sometimes)

Rubbing some Vaseline on the rubber seals helps too.

Be generous with it, approx 10 wraps.
