Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC requirements. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before beginning any work on existing supply lines. The quick connect design does not require thread sealant or specialty tools, but verify that pipe ends are clean, cut square, and fully seated before pressurizing the system. Confirm burial depth and backfill requirements with local code when using in direct in-ground applications.
