Important:Do not over tighten fittings as this may cause leakage and broken fittings. Do NOT use pipe dope. The use of pipe dope voids the warranty. You may use plumber’s tape. Leave two-three threads exposed and do not exceed seven layers of plumber’s tape. More than seven layers will cause the nipple to crack and leak.
