Hydrosert® Installation
 |   |   | 
 
In addition to saving time and money, using Perfection Hydrosert PE Potable Water System will ensure a leak-free connection. Our simple five-step installation procedure provides consistent positive connections that prevent pull-out of the pipe or tubing.    
   
Cut the PE piping so that the end is square.
 
Wipe with a clean, dry cloth. Inspect the last several inches of PE tubing for damage. If any, cut again to remove damaged area.
   
Use the Perfection chamfering tool for a proper O.D. chamfer. This chamfer permits the PE piping to be completely stabbed without affecting the internal seals.
 
Use a soft felt tip pen, crayon or grease pencil to mark the stab depth as indicated on your Hydrosert package instructions. The stab depth is the approximate distance from the edge of the fusion bead to the end of the fitting body.
 
Stab the PE piping into the hydrosert fitting so that the stab depth mark is visible:

• Within 1/8" of moisture seal on 1" CTS sizes
• Within 1/4" on all other sizes

The PE piping must bottom out in the fitting. Pressure test the joint in accordance with your standard procedures. The reference mark can move outward up to an additional
3/8" during pressure testing.
