Then you need a 3/4" X 1/4" black reducing coupling.

I would be quite surprised if any EMCO, Wolseley, or Crane Supply branch in Calgary doesnt have these fittings. Dont bother with RONA or any hardware stores.

Great, I'll try that. I figured there would be a way to adapt it to work, but I didn't have any ideas to suggest.

Further, which store would you suggest I try first? (ie most selection of fittings). Do any of them have their fittings area open to public so I can fiddle without having the counter guy grabbing me parts endlessly?
