4410 Freeze Resistant Tubular Fountain
with 97243C Single Valve Control Assembly
IMPORTANT! INSTALLER PLEASE NOTE
Do not pull up on lines coming out of the PVC column. This raises the water valve above the frost line with
disastrous results.
General Installation Tips
1. Be sure to flush water supply line before you connect it to the inlet fitting on Freeze Resistant Valve System.
2. There are two drain lines required for this unit. One for the drinking fountain basin drain and one for the valve/water supply line system. The bowl drain is the 3/4"
PVC fitting at the bottom of the 6" PVC tube and the valve drains through the small holes in the PVC cap. Provide ample drainage for these two items. It's always
better to have too much then not enough.
3. The column (6" PVC tube) must remain vertical. Be sure it remains vertical when backfilling the excavating trench.
4. When the concrete pad, for mounting the fountain, is poured, be sure to allow adequate space around the top of the column so that the flexible cap may be
removed for servicing the valve.
5. We recommend that the top of the column be flush or slightly above the top height of the concrete pad.
6. You should test the unit before you backfill. Simply blow on the clear, small diameter tubing. A steady stream should flow from the braided tubing line. When air
pressure is removed from the clear tubing the water stream should stop.
7. Once you have tested the valve, backfilled the hole and poured the concrete mounting pad you are ready to set the fountain. After bolting the fountain in place
connect the air control valve tubing, supply water tubing and drain lines. The water supply line must have a straight run from the basin bubbler down to the control
valve. If a straight run is not maintained water will become trapped and freeze leaving the unit inoperable. Test the fountai n again. If it fails to work, the air
control line may be kinked or connected improperly. Be sure to keep water out of the air control line.
8. These products are designed to operate on 20 psig to 105 psig supply line pressure. If inlet pressure above 105 psig, a pre ssure regulator must be installed in the
supply line. Any damage caused by reason of connecting this product to supply line pressure lower than 20 psig or higher than 105 psig is not covered by
warranty.
