in reservoir, metal tube in middle 1/2 to 1inch and hole close by, should that be only things in reservoir or should plastic part fit on metal tube?

My tubing is 1" but it looks like it would fit 7/8". So I'd say the answer is yes. This is a sturdy unit and I've used for over 1 1/2 years with 2+ weekly gigs with no problems.

I used 3" but 1 1/2" would work fine. My thought was the bigger the diameter the more water it held. More water means less fill ups and plenty of water for hot days.

The out is 1/2 i.d. tube fitting on it but can be removed to have a 1in npt. You can get a bushing to do this at lowes to bring it to a 1/4 npt thats what I did.

I used a 3/4" pipe nipple attached to a metal pole I had. The OD on the nipple is about 1" and the pole top fits over it with very little plat.

I think you mean the diameter of the tubing? It's about 3/4". The tubing is smooth and rounded, should slide into a tight spot easily.

It has a 1mm gap between the halves when fully tightened on a 30mm tube. You could probably jam a 1" tube in it but since there are so many 1" mounts available I would just buy one of them to start with.

I used the same size (1/2) for a pvc 1/2 with some couplers and works ok. Read a little more. I think ABS pipe is not for water feeding.

Its recommended installation on copper piping. However the package says either plastic or copper. Others have reviewed installing on plastic just make sure u pre drill the hole with a slightly smaller drill bit than the punture pin. I also have plastic piping but went to copper near the water heater so I ended up installing mine there. Just to be safe. If u go ahead on the plastic there is rubber housing around the puncture pin area to help prevent leaks. Its really easy to install. If anything u can check utube for installation instructions but highly doubt u will need. Theres lots of step by step videos there. Its recommended installation on copper piping.

Good Day to youIts a small tube , like 1/4 of an inch , so just a small hole exceeding 1/4 would be fine , and in my case it didnt show because the sink and toilet are realy near each other.Don't worry. Hope you will own and enjoyHave a good day

Hello,if your talking about doing that to the threaded fittings that come with this faucet, no the 1/2 copper pipe will not fit inside the fittings. thanks Don.

Do not use 1/2 inch pipes, you will get better results with the wider pipe. Do not use plastic/PVC piping, use copper.

just the plastic cap covering the hole, but at about that height there is a hole in the side where your supposed to put the wire hook thing. It shouldn't cause a problem though.

I just bought plastic tubing from the hardware store. It is standard. It was a year ago and I do not remember the size.

The end that goes in bars if you can't get it tight with the supplied tube then add tape to it.If you mean the y like part it's 2 pieces and should fit.

Your hole should be just perfect enough that you have to screw in the nipples with a socket or wrench. That tight of a fit. If it's not like that then you have a hole size issue. If it is tight then you have a sealing issue. Easy fix.

Bob, I have a 3/8" OD plastic tube from my filter to faucet, this diameter provides better flow. I am using a Omni under sink filter which has 3/8" inlet and outlet.
