Frequently asked questions

• What tools do I need to install this fitting? Press fittings require a dedicated press tool with the correct jaw type (commonly designated B, F or TH depending on the system) matching the fitting size and type - without the right tool the joint cannot be made or checked.
• How do I know the joint has been pressed correctly? Quality press fittings have a press indicator (e.g. a sealing O-ring that leaks if pressing is incomplete) - before being covered by a wall or screed, the whole system should always undergo a pressure test.
• Can a pressed joint be taken apart afterwards? No, unlike a compression union, a pressed joint is permanent - taking it apart means cutting out the fitting and replacing it with a new one.
• Must installation be carried out by a professional? Yes, pressing fittings requires professional skill and correctly calibrated tools - we recommend leaving this to a heating engineer/plumber, especially for joints that will be covered by a wall or screed with no possibility of later inspection.
