BODY
A
Connect one solenoid wire to a common wire
(usually white). All valves can share the same
INLET common wire.

Before Installation B
Connect the second solenoid wire to a power
wire (usually colored).
llInstall master valves and pressure regulators as
needed.
llA pressure regulator is required if water pressure 

exceeds 150 PSI (recommended over 80 PSI).

llFlush the system thoroughly until water runs clear.

llShut off the main water supply.

NOTE: Anti-Siphon valves must be installed a
minimum of 6” above ground and the highest


outlet in the zone supplied by the valve.

Connect Valve to Pipes
A
Apply PTFE thread-seal tape to the male 2
threads on the adapters, screw into the valve
and hand-tighten. (do not use PVC glue or pipe


dope on adapter threads).

B
Apply primer and then PVC cement to the ends
of the pipe and inside the adapters per manu-
