Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, ensure the 15mm pipe is cut cleanly and square. Use a deburring tool to remove any sharp edges that could damage the internal O-ring seal. Push the fitting firmly onto the pipe until you feel it seat securely. For removal or repositioning, ensure the pressure is drained from the line before attempting to disconnect. The fitting should be kept away from harsh solvents or abrasive cleaning agents that could degrade the plastic structure. Periodically inspect the fitting for signs of weeping or damage during routine system maintenance.
