Customer Questions and Answers for O-Ring (1.1 In X 1.4 In) by Ge

This O-ring creates a tight, leak-resistant seal between mating water system components. Replacing a worn seal helps stop drips and maintain correct pressure and flow in your GE water treatment system.

• Forms the compression seal between housings, manifolds, or valve fittings
• Helps prevent water leaks and seepage at the connection
• Maintains system pressure by reducing bypass at the joint
• Typical failure signs: flattening, cracks, nicks, swelling, or persistent drips even after tightening

• Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before service
• Clean the groove and mating surfaces; remove debris, scale, or old residue
• Lightly lubricate with food-grade silicone grease; do not use petroleum-based products
• Seat the O-ring evenly without twisting and tighten fittings to manufacturer guidance—do not overtighten
