How tight should compression fittings be
Ok. Cue the “tight enough to not drip” responses.
When I am installing angle stops I always feel like im really cranking down on them, and on a large job it adds a lot of time, not to mention once a week the wrench slips and busts my nuckles. I have removed some in repair jobs and they never seem that tight. How do you guys approach these things? What is tight enough. Had one blow off when I was my first year in so I think Im paranoid.
Thanks in advance.
