Quick installation tips
- Before you start, shut off the water and relieve pressure from the line.
- Attach the 1/2" FIP inlet to the faucet valve, then secure the compression outlet to the shutoff valve or faucet tailpiece.
- Hand-tighten first, then give a final snug turn with a wrench—avoid over-tightening to prevent leaks.
- Turn the water back on and check all connections for leaks; tighten as needed.
