Notes:
• Use copper tubing only for installation. Plastic is
less durable and can cause damage.
• Add 8’ to tubing length needed to reach water
supply for creation of service loop.
1. Create service loop with
copper tubing (minimum 2’
diameter). Avoid kinks in the
copper tubing when bending
the service loop.
Do not
use
plastic tubing.
2. Remove plastic cap from water valve
inlet port.

tighten while holding the upper
nut in place.
Important: Do not
over-tighten. Cross threading
may occur.
