install systems in areas where ambient temperatures may go above 110° F (43.3° C).
•
Do not
install on hot water supply lines. The maximum operating water temperature of this system is 100°F (37.8°C).
•
Do not
install if water pressure exceeds 125 psi (862 kPa). If your water pressure exceeds psi (552 kPa), you must install a
pressure limiting valve. Contact a plumbing professional if you are uncertain how to check your water pressure.
