Additional Part Requirements

Installation of the WaterCop® will require additional parts . When the main supply line is
cut to accommodate the WaterCop®, new fittings will be needed to connect the ends
of the piping to the WaterCop® valve .
The type of connecting fittings to use will be determined by the type of existing piping,
local plumbing codes, and "industry standard practices . "
The most common material for water supply lines is copper . If the WaterCop® is to be
installed in a copper line, you still have a choice of fittings and methods of installation .

Compression Fittings

The unit can be installed with compression fittings using common household tools
and basic mechanical ability . You will need:
•
two fittings (male pipe thread x compression)
available at most local hardware or plumbing
supply stores
•
pencil or marker
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
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 . For ½" tube (5/8"
outside diameter) subtract ½", for ¾" tube (7/8" outside diameter) subtract ¾"
from your 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 WaterCop . ® 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 .
