FAQ
Can I use Hansen True Fit Fittings with my swimming pool/spa pool set up?
No, as the high concentration of chlorine used in the water for pools will attack the material. The fitting material is only suitable for use with domestic water. Hansen products that are used in this application will not be covered by our Hansen Warranty.
Can I use these fittings with metal fittings?
Yes. For more information on installation tips refer to installation instructions.
Do I need to support my fittings?
Yes. All pipe work must be adequately supported.
Does this fitting carry Hansen Warranty?
Yes, all Hansen manufactured products carry our Hansen Warranty.
What temperature can I use Hansen fittings at?
Hansen have tested all its products for use with cold water up to a maximum temperature of 60°C (140°F). We do not recommend the use of these products with temperatures higher than 60°C (140°F) as plastic expands due to temperature increases. Hansen cannot guarantee the products will perform when used with temperatures over 60°C (140°F). Hansen products that have failed in temperatures higher than 60°C (140°F) will not be covered by our Hansen Warranty.
How tight should I tighten my Hansen threaded fittings?
Do not over tighten. The right way to assemble a threaded fitting is hand tight plus one to two turns – no more! For more information on installation tips refer to installation instructions.
Which type of thread sealant should I use?
Use a thread sealant on all threaded connections. We recommend Loctite 5331.
