Subject:      Shurflo faucet woe's
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8"

Last Sunday while camping, if you can call it that in Seward, AK, we
suffered a faucet failure.  In August of 2017 I installed a Shurflo faucet
and new water lines into my `87 Westy Syncro.  Shortly after I noticed it
would leak a little from time to time but could not identify if it was at
the flange where the faucet neck meets the housing or out at the end of the
faucet.  Sunday afternoon I found out as my son was attempting to do the
dishes and the entire faucet end of the housing blew off spraying water
everywhere until he turned the pump off.  I was wondering if anyone has had
this happen with theirs or did we just get lucky?
