Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code and applicable local codes. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before cutting in or threading the fitting. Clean all mating surfaces thoroughly before soldering or applying thread sealant to ensure a leak-free joint. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as brass fittings are subject to cracking under excessive torque.
