PRE-INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
INSTALLATION
Use qualified tradespeople to install the Acorn BASyC system and follow all manufacturer’s instructions,
local codes, and regulations. The BASyC™ system should be installed in an area that is secure from
unauthorized personnel. Only allow trained personnel to access and/or work with the Acorn BASyC™
System. It is the responsibility of the system owner/user to determine the appropriate temperatures and
settings. Refer to Appendix A (Page 32) for the list of default values and applicable adjustment ranges.
Important:
Flush supply lines of all foreign material such as pipe dope, chips or solder
prior to connecting to mixing valve.
Review the installation and maintenance manual thoroughly before beginning any work.
Installation and field adjustment are the responsibility of the installer. Optional pre-configured units
and/or start-up assistance are available, please contact Acorn for details.

For more information on capabilities, options, installation/maintenance and piping requirements for the Acorn
Command Stations or Multi-Valve Supply Fixtures provided as a part of your Acorn BASyC™ system please
go to the Acorn Controls website at:

If Upgrading System
Important Upgrade notes:
• The Temperature probe should be inserted into the compression fitting so that 1” of the SS sensor is sticking
out from the fitting. This ensures the probe is located properly in the waterway. Install sensors using coding
as defined in Appendix B to ensure that temperature sensors are installed properly in a multi-valve and/or
multi-loop assembly.
• The sensors are all labeled per
appendix B, make sure to connect
them in the correct positions so
that the software receives the
proper data.
