5、E standards are developed in the interest of consumer safety. This standard was developed to establish minimum performance requirements for push-fit fittings; an alternative method of connecting fittings with valves and tubing on potable water distribution systems and hydronic heat systems. There ar

6、e other applications for push-fit fittings, including compressed air systems and gas piping systems. However, the performance requirements and tests in ASSE Standard #1061 were developed for fittings installed in potable water distribution systems and hydronic heat systems only. Pressurized (compres

7、sed) air, which is used for laboratory testing, contains large amounts of stored energy that could present serious safety hazards should a system fail for any reason. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety requirements prior to performing any of the tes
