Installation Procedure

1. Ensure pipe ends are clean and free from debris. Verify mating fittings are compatible and properly prepared. 2. Apply appropriate solvent cement and primer (if applicable) to both pipe and fitting surfaces according to manufacturer instructions. 3. Assemble pipe and fitting with a firm twisting motion, holding for 30 seconds to allow initial set. 4. Allow adequate cure time based on temperature and humidity before pressurizing the system.
