To avoid any injury, never place your fingers inside the valve
Do not grip plastic motor drive for leverage when installing the valve
Do not install on fire suppression systems or fire sprinkler water lines
Indoor use only

Ensure that you have all necessary leakSMART Valve components and fittings required for installation:
- leakSMART Valve (3/4” FIP x 3/4” MIP), (1” FIP x 1” MIP) or (1-1/4” FIP x 1-1/4” MIP)
- AC power adapter with 18 ft. reach
- 4 AA Alkaline batteries (provided)
To protect the valve cover from possible damage, remove it by sliding it away from the valve, and keep it off until you’ve completed installation.
Shut off the main water supply valve.
Open both hot and cold handles on the faucet nearest the valve to relieve water pressure.
The valve will also need to reach an AC power source. It is recommended that the valve is kept operating on AC power (cord provided), with batteries used as a back-up power source.
IMPORTANT: The valve must be installed after the water main manual shut-off and water meter. It is recommended that the valve be installed at least 8 inches away from water shut-off to avoid damage. Additional fittings may be required. Do not solder fittings near the water meter or smart valve to avoid heat affecting the devices. Position the valve so that the arrow on the side points away from the water meter.
Note: The valve can be installed vertically or horizontally, do not install upside down.
Once installed, close the faucet, turn on the main water valve and check for leaks. Reattach the valve cover by sliding it over the motor housing, with the front facing you. Caution: When first opening the valve, air remaining in your plumbing lines from cutting in the valve will rapidly vent out of the open faucet, this may create water hammer effect on first time use. Once air has escaped, your system will go back to mormal pressures.
Attach the AC power cord adapter to the valve cover and plug into the nearest 110 volt outlet.
- Using an extension cord is not recommended — please use the 18 ft. AC power adapter cord in this package.
- An optional 9 ft. AC power adapter extension wire is also available.
Check valve cover function by turning on a faucet and pressing the “Open” and “Close” buttons.
- When the valve is open, it will display a steady green light and water will run.
