Step-by-Step Installation for the Slip Bulkhead Kit Assembly (1/2")

A proper install ensures lasting performance and zero leaks. Follow these quick steps for a clean setup:

1. Measure and Drill: Confirm your hole size fits the 1/2" bulkhead snugly.

2. Insert the Fitting: Push the bulkhead through the drilled hole, keeping the gasket inside the tank.

3. Tighten the Lock Nut: Hand-tighten evenly without over-compressing the gasket.

4. Connect the Pipe: Slide the PVC pipe into the slip end for a secure, pressure-tight seal.

Pro Tip: Test for drips before filling your system—better to catch a leak now than after it’s running overnight.
