For those that want a Drinking Water jar HOLDER, a customer found one HERE
DON’T BREAK THE FITTINGS:
Note that the ‘push-on’ hoses we now use are normal ’standard in the industry’ oxygen hoses and fittings. They CAN be pushed on ’too far’ making them difficult to remove.

It’s helpful to just push the hoses on ONLY enough to seal AND when removing them to ‘pinch’ the hose connector above the fitting, to ‘open up’ the connector for release.
Do not PULL or twist the connector off the fitting, pulling just makes the connector clamp on harder. Better to PUSH the connector off. Push from the bottom while pinching at the top.
For those people that want a different solution, to make it even easier to connect various options to the Drinking Water Jar lid, without the chance of damage….
Here is another option: Put a short hose permanently on the lid and then put a male:male connector on the end of the hose.
A further modification that would make both hoses easy to connect without KINKING, is to put a 3/16″ (5mm) plastic 90 degree elbow on the Drinking Water jar fittings, using a short piece of 3/16″ ID vinyl hose (pick up in hardware store).
Then you can just connect anything you want to the end of the hose without disturbing the Drinking Water Jar.
