Installing plumbing fittings correctly is essential to ensure a leak-free, efficient water system. Whether for residential or commercial use, following proper installation procedures helps maintain durability and compliance with Singapore’s plumbing regulations. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the step-by-step installation process, essential safety measures, and best practices when working with plumbing fittings.
For high-quality and durable plumbing fittings, JIANZHI, a leading Chinese manufacturer, provides custom solutions tailored for different plumbing systems.
Before starting, ensure you have the necessary tools:
✔️ Pipe cutter or hacksaw
✔️ Adjustable wrench
✔️ Thread sealant or Teflon tape
✔️ Pipe fittings (brass, PVC, stainless steel, etc.)
✔️ Measuring tape
✔️ Safety gloves and goggles
Use a measuring tape to determine the required pipe length.
Cut the pipe using a pipe cutter or hacksaw for a clean, even edge.
Remove any burrs or rough edges using sandpaper or a deburring tool.
For threaded plumbing fittings, wrap Teflon tape around the male threads 2-3 times to create a watertight seal. Alternatively, use a thread sealant for added protection.
Align the fittings properly before tightening.
Use an adjustable wrench to secure the connections, avoiding over-tightening that could damage the fittings.
For push-to-connect (PTC) fittings, insert the pipe firmly into the fitting until it locks in place.
Turn on the water supply and observe for any drips or leaks.
If leaks occur, re-tighten the fittings or apply additional Teflon tape.
Ensure the system maintains proper water pressure without excessive force on the fittings.
✅ Follow Singapore’s plumbing codes to avoid compliance issues.
✅ Wear protective gear such as gloves and safety goggles.
✅ Ensure proper ventilation when working with adhesives or sealants.
✅ Turn off the water supply before starting any installation.
