Homewerks Worldwide Llc 7228-12-12-1 Faucet Connector

Product Description

The HOMEWERKS WORLDWIDE LLC 7228-12-12-1 is a lead free faucet connector designed for potable water supply connections at residential and light commercial faucets. It features a reinforced poly vinyl chloride (PVC) body with 1/2 inch Female Iron Pipe (FIP) fittings on both ends and a 12 inch overall length. The wetted surfaces of this connector contain less than 0.25% lead by weight, meeting the requirements of California AB1953 and Vermont S152 low lead restrictions. Licensed plumbers and qualified installers use this connector to make the final supply connection between a shut-off valve and a faucet body.

This connector is suited for under-sink faucet installations in residential kitchens and bathrooms as well as light commercial lavatories. The 1/2 inch FIP x 1/2 inch FIP configuration fits standard compression or threaded stop valves and most faucet supply inlets. The 12 inch length accommodates typical cabinet depths where the shut-off valve and faucet inlet are in close proximity. This product is sold in bulk packaging with a unit of measure of each.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the water supply and relieve line pressure before removing the existing connector or making any new connections. Hand-tighten FIP fittings first, then use an appropriately sized wrench to snug — do not overtighten threaded connections on PVC-bodied fittings. Inspect for leaks at both ends after restoring water pressure.
