Verify that the transmitter and wire are clear of doors,
drawers, sharp edges, or other hazards that may cause
damage.
Unplug the WaterCopPRO after the testing is complete.
The WaterCopPRO can now be installed into the plumbing
system.
Prior to installation, read all warnings and precautions
carefully.
Installation Procedure
Check the contents of the carton with the products listed on
the carton label. The shipping package should contain the
following:
1 ea. WaterCopPRO actuator with power adaptor
1 ea. Owner's Manual/Installation Guide
You will also need the correct size WaterCopPRO—ready
ball valve (may be sold separately).
Note: The package may contain sensors if purchased as
part of kit.
Read Operating Instructions before any installation is
attempted. All sections of this Installation Guide and
accompanying Owner's Manual should be read and
completely understood.
Review Location and Type of Main Supply Line
The main supply line should enter the house in either the
basement or a crawl space beneath the first floor. The
water main shut-off valve is usually located near where
the line comes through the basement wall or just after the
water line enters the living area from the crawl space.
In apartments, townhouses, and manufactured housing
constructions the water main shut-off valve can usually be
found in close proximity to the water heater installation.
The WaterCopPRO valve should be installed in the main
water line just downstream from the main shut-off valve
in your home. The water supply must be shut off prior to
installation of the WaterCopPRO.
Choose a dry location to install the WaterCopPRO. The
front control panel should be easily visible in order to
see the valve position (open/closed) and accessible for
resetting after a leak has been detected and corrected.
Place the valve where the housing is protected from use
as a step or to support excessive loads. The shut-off valve
must be installed:
• In the main water line.
• In place of or just downstream from the main water shut-
off valve.
• Where it is accessible for checking status, resetting the
valve and adding or removing sensors from the network.
• Where the case is protected from use as a step or to
support excessive loads.
Caution: Never use the housing for leverage when
mounting this unit or tightening fittings. Use a wrench on
the valve flats that are provided.
Caution: High heat from soldering or brazing can damage
valve seats or motor housing. Proper precautions should be
taken to prevent damage from heat when installing the unit.
Remove plastic housing before soldering valve in place.
Additional Part Requirements
Installation of the WaterCopPRO will require additional
parts. When the main supply line is cut to accommodate the
WaterCopPRO, new fittings will be needed to connect the
ends of the piping to the WaterCopPRO valve.
The type of connecting fittings to use will be determined
by the type of existing piping, local plumbing codes, and
"industry standard practices."
Compression Fittings
The unit can be installed with compression fittings using
common household tools and basic mechanical ability. You
will need:
a) 2 fittings (male pipe thread x compression) available at
most local hardware or plumbing supply stores
b) Teflon tape or other thread sealant
c) Tubing cutter
d) Ruler
e) Pencil or marker
f) 2 large adjustable wrenches
Measure the outside diameter of the copper tube and note
the valve size to be sure you purchase the proper size
fittings for the job.
1. Remove nuts and sleeves from compression fittings
and install the fittings into each end of the valve
using Teflon tape or other thread sealant to ensure a
watertight seal. Hold one wrench on flats of valve body
and use the other to tighten fittings.
2. Measure the distance from end to end of valve
assembly once fittings are secure. For 1/2" tube
(5/8" outside diameter) subtract 1/2", for 3/4" tube
(7/8" outside diameter) subtract 3/4" from your valve
assembly measurement. This is the length of the
section of tubing to be cut out of the existing line. The
piece of existing tubing to be cut out is shorter than
the measured length so that tube ends extend into the
compression fittings.
3. Select the location for the WaterCopPRO. Be sure to
consider that you will need access to the front panel
of the control unit. After cutting the section of tube out
of the line, you will need to shift the tube ends to be
able to fit the unit into place. Make sure you will have
access and room to adjust before you cut the tube.
4. Mark the tube in the location you have selected.
Double check the length and location you marked.
5. Turn water off and drain the system.
6. Use tube cutter to cut copper tube at the locations you
marked. Careful, there will probably still be some water
in the line.
7. Remove any burrs from the tube ends and clean ends.
8. Install compression nuts and sleeves to each tube end.
9. Shift tube ends to install WaterCopPRO valve in line.
