This infographic shows how you can deal with one of the more common and troublesome household issues, as well as ensure that you are wasting as little water as possible. A number of people struggle with connecting a hose to a tap, mostly because they are not aware of the little tip involving heating the end of the hose so that it softens and becomes more amenable. If the hose is not fitted properly, you can expect serious leaks, especially if you are running the water at a higher pressure. While the leak might look small, the amount of waste that it can cause over time can be truly staggering. That’s why you should follow the advice outlined in this infographic to the letter, and make sure to check the connection for leaks. If you do detect one, cut off the piece of the hose that you tried to fit onto the tap, and start over.
