Step 6: Preparing the tank
a
Turn the tank on its side.
b
Apply the foam tape 1 to position 1 on the bottom of the tank, around the outside edge (recessed channel), of the hole on
the bottom of the tank (where the thermal earth tube will align).
c
Apply the foam tape 2 to position 2 on the bottom of the tank, around the outside edge (recessed channel).
d
Foam tape 3 is pre-installed under the tank top lid, and no further installation is required.
e
Finally, apply the foam tape that shipped with the reservoir lid.
f
Unscrew the WaterWell valve or disconnect it from the tank. Remove the valve mounting plate assembly by unscrewing
the three hex bolts.
g
Lift the tank and carefully place it over the vertical water supply line and ¾ inch flex line, so that the ¾ inch flex line comes
up through the tank top opening. The end of the ¾ inch flex line should be 2-3 inches above the opening. This allows
room to make connections to the valve. Excess line will be pushed back down into the tank bottom later.
