Have you turned off the water?
Step 1: Preparing the site
a
Choose a location that is easily accessible by livestock and sheltered from the elements.
b
Check the measurements of your WaterPro2 against the size of the concrete slab you need. See page 4.
In the WaterPro2, the access cavity for the vertical water supply and electric supply is off center. Align the thermal earth
tube so that the vertical water supply is as close to the center of the tube as possible. Take care to ensure that the vertical
water supply line does not touch the sides of the thermal earth tube as this will cause the supply line to freeze. See page 4.
Check that you have aligned the hole in the concrete with the access cavity under the WaterPro2.
Step 2: Installing the water supply lines
a
The horizontal water supply line should be at least 1 foot (305 mm) below the frost line.
b
Strongly recommended: If installing a shut-off valve, install it on the horizontal water supply line leading up to the tank
and ensure it is located outside of the perimeter of the concrete slab.
c
The vertical water supply line should be a ½ inch in diameter to connect to the horizontal water supply line. If your vertical
water supply line is larger than ½ inch, you will also need an adapter.
Ensure that the vertical water supply line is cut at least 10 inches (254 mm) above the ground.
You will cut it to a more precise length in Step 6.
