Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure a successful installation, follow these steps:
- Preparation: Cut the 35mm pipe square and remove all burrs using a file.
- Cleaning: Clean the pipe ends and the inside of the coupling thoroughly until bright to ensure the solder adheres properly.
- Fluxing: Apply an appropriate plumbing flux to the pipe end and the fitting interior.
- Soldering: Assemble the connection and apply heat until the solder flows. Allow the joint to cool naturally without stress.
Care Instructions: Once installed, check for leaks under system pressure. Because these are copper, avoid contact with aggressive chemicals that may cause corrosion over time. Keep spare fittings in a dry, dust-free environment to prevent oxidation before installation.
