This warranty shall be invalidated by any abuse, misuse, misapplication, improper installation or improper maintenance or
alteration of the product.
Some States do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, and some States do not allow the exclusion

It is also suited for other continuous or intermittent pressure type installations
where water distribution piping flows to potentially contaminated containers,
equipment or sinks. In the event of negative supply pressures, such contaminated
fluids must not be allowed to backflow to the potable water supply source by
backsiphonage or other cause.
Installation
Before installing, flush out pipe lines to remove scale and other foreign matter. The
valve can be installed horizontally or vertically. Install the valve in the line with the
arrow on valve body pointing in the direction of flow. Teflon
®
tape is recommended
for the pipe threads. To maintain the valve discs in a clean operating condition, we
strongly recommend a pipe line strainer (Watts model 27) be installed in the supply
line before the Series
