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 relieve line pressure before cutting into any existing supply line. Use appropriate thread sealant or tape rated for brass fittings and potable water service. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as brass fittings can be damaged by excessive force.
