Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified tradespeople following applicable IPC and local plumbing code requirements. Shut off the water supply and relieve line pressure before cutting into existing pipe. Hand-tighten compression nuts first, then snug with a wrench — do not overtighten, as excess force can crack PVC fittings or damage rubber gaskets. This fitting is rated for cold water only and should not be used in hot water or steam service.
