If the code matches the code on the WaterCop® valve, and it still does not function

properly, replace the sensor .

Installation of Leak Sensor

Once testing is complete, finish installation of the leak sensors by unwinding the cord

and placing the sensor probe on the surface at the lowest point (where water would

naturally collect) in the area to be monitored . Be sure that the sensor is placed FLAT

on the surface so water can be detected as soon as it begins to accumulate . The

sensor should be secured to the surface, taking care that the metal probes are not

covered . Verify that the transmitter and wire are clear of doors, drawers, sharp edges,

or other hazards that may cause damage .

Unplug the WaterCop® after the testing is complete.

The WaterCop® can now be installed.

Prior to installation, read all

warnings and precautions carefully .

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 WaterCop® 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 WaterCop . ®
