Attach the inlet and outlet fittings to your cut pipes, following the manufacturer’s instructions. Ensure all fittings are securely connected, using appropriate sealants or thread tape to prevent leaks. The housing’s inlet should connect to the water supply line, and the outlet should lead towards the water softener or downstream equipment.
