How to use

Verify compatibility between the adapter and the faucet inlet or outlet before installation. Prepare mating surfaces by cleaning threads and removing debris. Hand-start the adapter onto the corresponding thread to ensure correct alignment, then tighten to specification using appropriate tools, taking care not to overtighten plastic components. Where required, apply a suitable sealing method compatible with the adapter material and potable water use, such as approved thread sealant or tape. After installation, run the water and inspect for leaks at the connection, retightening carefully if necessary.

Usage recommendations

Use the adapter only in applications compatible with its material and intended use in potable water systems; avoid exposure to chemicals or temperatures outside recommended operating conditions. When in doubt about thread compatibility or sealing methods, consult installation documentation or a qualified plumber to ensure a secure and compliant connection.
