How to use

Shut off the main water supply before beginning installation. Fit the valve to the water supply line and fixture connection using appropriate thread sealant or tape per local plumbing standards, ensuring the valve body is oriented at 90° to the supply pipe. After tightening connections and restoring water, operate the valve to check for smooth opening and closing and inspect all joints for leaks. If the installation is concealed, leave access available for future maintenance by marking the location or using an access panel.

Usage recommendations

Use the valve within normal domestic water pressure ranges and avoid exposure to aggressive chemicals or corrosive fluids. For longevity, operate the valve periodically to prevent stiffness. When installing in visible locations, select a compatible cap or escutcheon to match surrounding fixtures since the product is supplied without a decorative cap.
