i have had nothing but problems with my reel with hotwater
and brass elbows dont last long before they start to drip
have now got a cox reel fully made of metal and all fitting
are solid from heater to reel no more leeks not even a drip
only problem reel to wide for me so cut mine down by 180mm

what fittings have you used

We use those swivels too.

Your best bet is to take it to bits, get the o ring and replace it with something better, probably a viton o ring. http://www.polymax.co.uk/o-rings/rubber-viton-oring/

dont know what you mean by swivels
what i have came with the reel or you saying it will leek in time

[formb]

The swivel is the brass bit. It is like a brass block with a bolt through it. The bit that.. well... swivels.

If you take it apart you will see it has 2 rubber o rings. These are not designed for honumptyer. Viton ones are.
