01

The installation is straight forward and can be completed by someone with good DIY experience. However, we would recommend that you contact your local plumber who should take no more than 1-2 hours to complete the operation, this will  depend on your existing pipe plumbing system 

02

Turn off the mains water at the existing manual Stop Valve. Cut into the rising mains water pipe above the manual stop valve. Care should be taken as some residual water will be contained in the pipe beyond the stop valve. Flush out the pipe to clear any debris.

03

Fit the brass Y Filter nearest the manual  stop valve, take note of the water flow direction marked on the side.  The filter has compression fittings either end and can be tightened with the appropriately sized spanner.

04

Next connect a short length of copper pipe, approximately 50mm in length to the other end and again tighten.

05

Fit the JG straight pushfit connector (white plastic) to the end of the pipe making sure it is fully seated. Then connect the flow switch to the other side of the JG connector, again making sure that it is also seated fully/correctly.

06

Take note of the water direction marked on the side and ensure the flow switch is installed horizontally with the flow going up

08

Connect the solenoid valve onto the other end of the flow switch using one of the 2 brass pushfit connectors.   Once fitted, the other side of the valve can then be connected back onto the water piping using the remaining JG brass pushfit connector.

09

To seal the thread on these connectors PTFE tape should be used. Again, take note of the water direction through the valve as indicated by the arrow on the side.

10

The picture on the left shows the components connected together and wired into the controller. 

11

Next install and set up the controller and configure the user settings.  This is done as follows -

12

Decide on an easily accessible location for the controller and mount the back box using appropriate fixings for the chosen area.

13

Attach the electrical cable for both the flow switch and the solenoid valve onto the correct numbered terminals of the controller PCB - see User Guide.

14

Connect the battery or power supply, this will initiate the display on the controller to show the current configuration for the flow timer, vacant property timer and temperature setting for the freeze protection.

15

To change these factory settings follow the instructions in the User Guide. These can be found in the Documents page on this website.
