•  Push the pre-drilled dissolving ballpoint onto the end-

seal of the tubular heater making sure it is firmly in 

place. Then begin to feed the tubular heating cable sys-

tem into the pipe through the installed flexible coupler. 

Note: 

The pre-drilled dissolving ballpoint is designed 

to reduce the friction of the Retro-DWS tubular heater 

end-seal during installation. It also aids the passing of 

the tubular heater product through and around fittings 

located along length the pipe. 

•  Remove threaded cleanout plug.

CAUTION

: Effluent may be present  

when threaded cap is removed.

•  Apply Teflon tape or thread sealant to the 3" ABS threaded 

male adapter SPIG X MIPT.

•  Make sure to apply 

the Teflon tape in 

the direction of the 

threads to ensure it 

remains tight during 

threading of the fit-

tings. 

•  Thread the male 

adapter into the 

clean-out female entry 

point.
