Installation Steps
- Position the Valve: Align the valve with the piping system. Ensure the flow direction matches the intended water flow.
- Connect the Inlet: Attach the inlet side of the valve to the water source (hydrant or pump). Use a wrench to tighten the connection securely.
- Seal the Threads: Apply pipe sealant to the threads to prevent leaks. Ensure an even application around the threads.
- Attach the Outlets: Connect the outlet sides of the valve to the hoses or pipes. Tighten the connections with a wrench.
- Check for Leaks: Once all connections are secure, slowly open the water source to pressurize the system. Check for any leaks and tighten connections if necessary.
- Test the Valve: Operate the valve to ensure it opens and closes smoothly. Verify that water flows correctly through both outlets.
Post-Installation
- Inspect Regularly: Periodically check the valve for signs of wear or damage.
- Clean: Keep the valve clean and free from debris.
