All pipe fittings should be tight and all threaded pipe fittings tightly wrapped with
PTFE tape with a light coating of PTFE paste or other quality pipe thread sealant
applied over the taped male threads to prevent leaks. Both of these items are
included in the product installation kit.
Note: GE recommends two wraps of PTFE tape
or three wraps for large pipe fittings.
