Install the Shutoff Valve
1 Install the shutoff valve on the nearest frequently used drinking water line.
2 Choose a location for the valve that is easily accessible. It is best to connect into the side of a vertical water pipe. When it is necessary to connect into a horizontal water pipe, make the connection to the top or side, rather than at the bottom, to avoid drawing off any sediment from the water pipe.
3 Drill a 1/4″ hole in the water pipe, using a sharp bit. Remove any burrs resulting from drilling the hole in the pipe.
4 Fasten the shutoff valve to the cold water pipe with the pipe clamp. 5 Tighten the clamp screws until the sealing washer begins to swell.
Do not overtighten or you may crush the copper tubing.
