Yes, the EasyFit Isolator is designed to be fitted to live pipes hot up to 85°C or cold pipes.
The red alignment dots on the valve might be obscured by a white o-ring stuck on the top. Follow these steps:
- Check for a White O-Ring: Visually inspect the top of the valve for a white o-ring. It might be tightly adhered and appear flush with the valve surface.
- Remove the O-Ring (if present): Carefully remove the white o-ring. You can use a small pick tool or your fingernail (if possible) to gently pry it off. Be cautious not to damage the o-ring or the valve itself.
- Reveal Red Dots: Once the o-ring is removed, the red alignment dots should be visible on the top of the valve.
- Proceed with Alignment: Use the exposed red dots to align the plug as per the manufacturer’s instructions.
The EasyFit Isolator cuts and removes a section of pipe. For the 15mm Standard version a single disc of copper (or plastic) is removed which is pushed to the back of the housing. For the 15mm Pro, 22mm and 28mm versions a segment is stored in the lower housing which is not squashed – so the back of the valve is deeper.
The EasyFit Isolator is a full-flow valve which reduces flow by just 2% (@ 5 bar 30 lit/min) so flow will be 98% of the flowrate prior to fitting the valve.
