Step 7: Connecting the ¾ inch flex line and valve
a
Install the remaining seal into the top of the ¾ inch flex line.
b
Connect the ¾ inch flex line to the valve and plate assembly. Do not over tighten.
c
Turn on the water and check for leaks. Turn off the water.
d
Carefully push excess ¾ inch flex line back down through the tank bottom or opening of the tank.
e
Reattach the valve mount plate assembly to the tank with the supplied hardware and tighten.
Ensure that the O-ring is properly placed around the diameter of the tank opening before tightening the valve
mount plate assembly.
f
Open the shut-off valve.
If high water pressure is an issue, the shut-off valve can be used to help reduce the flow of water into the valve.
We recommend the use of a pressure reducer in situations where water pressure exceeds 87 psi. (See
flow capacity
on page 15 if using a pressure valve).
