The recommended water supply tubing is 1/4” OD copper. Stainless steel flex or reinforced PVC tube may also be
used. Install an easily accessible shut-off valve between the supply and the unit. This shut-off valve should not be
installed behind the unit.

solenoid valve inlet.

solenoid (fitting is located in cloth bag behind access panel).
