Need strange fitting adapter. 1/4 comp to 3/8 comp

Use a 3/8 x 1/4 compression union. Come out of the 3/8 stop with 3/8 copper, then the union, then out with 1/4 copper to the faucet.

Do what Mark said. I wondered why this didn't occur to you already, except that you said 3/8" compression "hose." If you meant that you have plastic or stainless steel supply tubes, then they'll have to be replaced with soft copper or PB.

Thanks for the reply.

Don't want to use copper because of location. Faucet is above heavily used cabinet, don't want to run risk of solid line being "worked loose" by movement of items in cabinet. Flex hose is a better risk.

Problem solved by using 1/4 to 3/8 compression adapter with 1" piece of copper off bottom of faucet. 3/8 flex hose connected to adapater from valve, all is good.

Basically, went with Mark's suggestion, just modified it to suit.

Thanks for the ideas.

He said both sizes were compression. Just screw the nuts off and set the ferrules aside.

I think Johnstone has that size compression reducer. Give me a yell (off group) if you can't get one. Sounds like you couldn't, ---/O-O ?
