Practical installation tips
- Prepare copper pipe ends with a clean, square cut and deburr the inner edge to ensure a solid compression seal.
- Slide the compression nut and ferrule onto the pipe first, then fit the valve body and tighten to the manufacturer’s recommendations for a leak-free connection.
- For gas applications, always follow local codes and manufacturer guidelines to confirm suitability and installation requirements.
