Before continuing, determine the type of water supply connection you have from the chart
below and use the appropriate assembly parts required to properly reconnect the water supply.
DO NOT use plumber's putty to seal these fittings.
CAUTION: DO NOT USE

water leakage. Water supply
tube or pipe must extend at
least 1/2" inside threaded
shank of valve (does not apply
to flanged tubing).
Use existing
coupling nut
and washer.

cone washer may not
seal completely on

Captive cone washers
already included. No
additional washers needed.

could result in breakage and
potential flooding.
