Installation Procedure

1. Ensure pipe ends are clean, deburred, and free from any contaminants. 2. Apply appropriate flux and solder to pipe ends and fitting sockets. 3. Insert pipe into fitting socket, twisting slightly to distribute solder. 4. Heat the joint evenly until solder flows freely into the gap, creating a strong bond.
