Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the applicable International Plumbing Code (IPC) or local code requirements. Shut off the water supply and relieve line pressure before removing or installing any fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to all male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten threaded brass fittings, as excessive torque can crack the casting.
