While brass is generally suitable, this specific model is commonly used for cold water feeds like washing machines. For hot water, always confirm compatibility with your system's temperature and pressure ratings.
The 15mm refers to the standard outer diameter of copper or plastic pipework that the compression fitting is designed to connect to.
Ensure the pipe is cut square and clean, and fully inserted into the fitting before tightening the compression nut. Do not overtighten, as this can damage the fitting or pipe.
Yes, as long as the water supply can handle the combined demand of both appliances running simultaneously. Ensure the connections are secure.
Typically, you will need two adjustable wrenches to hold the valve body steady while tightening the compression fittings.
The durable brass construction makes it suitable for certain commercial water systems, provided it meets local regulations and pressure requirements.
Please refer to the manufacturer's documentation or retailer for specific warranty information, as it can vary.
Ensure the pipe is clean and properly inserted. Tighten the compression nut further, but do not overtighten. Check the olive (compression ring) for damage and replace if necessary.
Verify that the main water supply is fully open. Check for any kinks in the appliance hoses. Ensure the valve tee is not obstructed internally.
Confirm you are using standard 3/4" BSP hoses. Ensure the threads on the valve tee and the hose are clean and free from debris.
Setup: Ensure the main water supply is turned off before commencing installation. Use appropriate wrenches to tighten the compression nuts onto the 15mm pipe and the 3/4" appliance hoses. Ensure all seals are correctly seated to prevent leaks.
Compatibility: This valve tee is designed for 15mm pipe entry and 3/4" connections for appliances. It is generally compatible with standard washing machine and dishwasher inlet hoses. It is suitable for cold water lines. For hot water applications, verify material compatibility and system pressure ratings.
Care: Periodically check all connections for signs of leakage. Clean the exterior of the valve tee with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could damage the brass finish.
