• Use careful consideration to keep the leak-detection cable's route from the direct path of
discharge air flow from air-conditioning or environmental equipment. If the cable is too close to
the air stream, moisture from the discharge may cause false leak readings. Route the cable at
least 6ft (1.8m) from discharge air flow to avoid nuisance alarms.
• Do not allow soldering or welding near the leak-detection cable without providing protection
from heat and contamination. Also, avoid installing the cable near these types of areas.
• The clip’s adhesive backing does not work well on porous concrete floors. We recommend using
a drop of silicone or another non-conductive adhesive to help secure the clip to the floor.
NOTE: If the leak-detection cable does become dirty or contaminated, refer to Troubleshooting on
page 77 for steps to clean the cable.
To install the cable:
1. Prepare the surface on which the leak-detection cable will be installed to avoid contaminating
the cable. Clean the entire floor as much as possible.
2. Lay the cable in the pattern and route depicted in the layout diagram, maintaining consistent,
uniform contact between the leak-detection cable and the floor.
