Shower fitting

[seasickstevie]

Rather than having the pipework coming into the side of the (electric) shower, I want to bring it through the back which would be much neater.

Problem it, I need to remove this fitting and replace with a compression elbow.

I've tried pushing the end collar, which normally releases these kind of push-fit fittings, but won't budge.

Any suggestions how to remove it please?

Looks to me like a Tectite (non-demountable) fitting

They are not all non-demountable, and that one looks like it is demountable.

Depends on the type of Tectite - That one is a Classic and it is demountable but you need the clamp or clip to do it.

You can get tectite classic fittings apart using a bahco type adjustable spanner.
Just adjust so it slides on tube, works somewhat better than the demounting tools!
