- Prepare pipe ends with a clean, burr-free cut to maximize barb grip.
- Choose stainless steel hose clamps rated for the pipe size and tighten securely to prevent leaks.
- Insert the barb fully onto the pipe and verify the joint has seated past the barb’s full depth before applying pressure.
- Test the installed section at low pressure first, then gradually increase to the system’s operating level to confirm a leak-free seal.
