Cut
2 1/2" hole dead center through bottom plate and floor with
the edge of the hole 1/4" from stud. Push tube through opening
from below. Nail 1041 mounting plate at desired height with plaster-guard
facing room. Push tube through opening from below. Connect tube
with a short 90" ell to mounting plate, using the increments
for proper 90" alignment.
Bend
low-voltage wire behind mounting plate, leaving enough length to
permit future connection to lugs on the Inlet Valve. Strap low-voltage
wire to tubing with cable ties.
A temporary
cardboard dust-cover is available to prevent construction debris
entering the installed system. The dust-cover may be imprinted with
the name or corporate logo of the installing company.

Install
mounting plates at desired location, slip a short 90" ell over
the spigot projecting from the back of the mounting plate. Use the
45" increments on back of mounting plate and line up with the
45" increment on the short 90" ell for true 45" alignment.
Insert a 2 1/4"pipe sleeve and slip into a 45" ell (Stock
No. 2008-HXH ) again using the 45" increments for proper 45"

LOCATION
FOR YOUR INLET VALVE |

|
|

 Illustration 6 |
To drill
pilot hole, first establish the location for your Inlet Valve! To
find an un-obstructed section in wall (between studs), tap with your
finger on wallboard until it sounds hollow. Using a 1/8" drill
bit, drill a pilot hole right through floor directly below the selected
location and as close to the baseboards as possible. Insert a coat
hanger wire or equivalent into hole so that it projects below floor
boards. From underneath floor measure from coat hanger to center of
2" x 4" plate, allowing for thickness of baseboard and wall
covering. Drill 2 1/2" hole directly in the center of 2"
x 4". |

Slip
short 90" ell over projecting spigot at back of mounting plate.
Grasp mounting plate between forefinger, middle finger and thumb.
Tit mounting plate top first upward into wall opening until completely
inside wall.
Pull towards you until mounting plate fits snug into opening, and
secure firmly in place with the use of the metal WALL CLIP, as shown

Connect low-voltage wire to lugs on back of Inlet Valve. Hold entire
assembly in place with a coat hanger wire while twisting the Inlet
valve onto the mounting plate. Do not glue, as rubber seal ring provides
maximum air-tightness. Line up mounting-screw holes and screw Inlet
Valve to mounting plate.
Note:
The use of the 90" ell (Stock No. 2004-HXH) is or4" walls,
while the Special Short 90" Ell (Stock No. 2021-HXS) should be
used for 3" walls. |
