supply water to the sink fixture. (Fig 1)

4. Connect the brass T's to the shut-off valves. (Fig 2)
( Most homes have 3/8 in. compression fittings on the shut-off
valves
but if the thread size is different a brass adaptor will be needed.)
5. Inspect the rubber washers in the hoses to make sure they can be
reused and then connect the two existing hoses to the brass T's.
