Part Description:
The Nut, Ring and Cone Connectors three components form the compression-style fittings that connect the water lines to the softener head. They create a secure, watertight seal for both the inlet and outlet connections.
Function & Importance:
The cone presses into the softener port while the ring and nut secure the line, preventing leaks
Designed to hold firm under normal plumbing pressure
No soldering or gluing—just hand-tightened fittings
Common Signs of Issues:
Leaking at connection points
Loose fittings
Whistling or water flow noise
Compatible Models:
WaterBoss 700, 900, and 950
AquaMaster 700, 900, and 950
AquaMaster PRO 5000, 5100, and 5500
Installation Tips:
Slide the nut on first, then the ring, and finally seat the cone before tightening
Hand tighten or use a wrench to snug the nut gently—do not over-tighten
Look for cracks and replace any damaged pieces before installation
These fittings are designed to seal without tape
Why It Matters:
These small parts are essential for leak-free operation. Without a secure connection, the softener could leak or lose pressure, leading to water damage or poor performance. Properly installed Nut, Ring, and Cone connectors keep your system running reliably and safely.
