Installation Guidelines Failure to comply with all aspects of these instructions may result in unsafe performance. All installations must comply with relevant State, Provincial and Local Authority requirements. Control unit can be installed vertically or horizontally. If installing a Control with SharkBite connections on copper pipe, use appropriate grounding clamps and run a jumper wire across the unit. Only use the provided StreamLabs DC Power Adapter.
Setup & Installation 1. Download the StreamLabs App. 2. Create an account or log in to an existing account. 3. Power your Control device. The device should not be installed on pipe during initial Wi-Fi pairing. 4. Follow the on-screen instructions in the app to setup and pair your device to your wireless network. 5. Once Wi-Fi pairing is complete, unplug the Control, go to the installation location, and turn to the next page.
Setup & Installation 1. Locate your incoming cold water line. The Control device should be installed on the incoming water line after a shut off valve and a pressure regulating valve. The Control is not meant to be used as the main shut-off valve to the house. If you do not have a main shut-off valve or pressure regulating valve, install prior to installing the Control.
Setup & Installation Take note to install the Control device prior to any pipe branches. Branches prior to the Control device will not be monitored or protected. At your installation location, you must have access to an electrical outlet and a Wi-Fi signal. The Control comes with a DC power adapter with a 10 foot cord. Power adapters of additional lengths can be purchased from Streamlabswater.com. 2. Check your Wi-Fi strength at your installation location.
Setup & Installation 5. If installing a Control with SharkBite connections refer to the pipe cut out table below. If installing a Control with FNPT connections, thread your adapters (not included) onto the unions and measure the cutout length. 6. Cut and remove pipe section. Ensure the pipe is cut clean, square, and is free from any dirt or debris. Pipe Cut Out Table 8 Pipe Size SharkBite Pipe Cut Out Section 3/4 in. 8.5 in. 1 in. 10 in. 1-1/4 in. 10 in.
Setup & Installation 7. Install unions onto the cut sections of pipe. (If using SharkBite unions, refer to the page 11 for how to install a SharkBite Push-to-Connect Fitting) 8. Place a gasket into each union. 9. Insert the Control between the unions. Thread the unions by hand onto each side of the control. Tighten the union nuts with a wrench. Make sure the device is installed with the directional arrow (found on the bottom of the unit) pointing toward the direction of water flow.
Setup & Installation 10 10. Turn the water back on and check the installation. 11. Open a downstream faucet to flush air from your lines. 12. Plug the DC Power Adapter to an outlet and run the cable to power the Control. The device will automatically reconnect to Wi-Fi and the Wi-Fi icon will turn green. 13. Test the device by opening and closing the valve using the touch panel on the device. 14. Return to the StreamLabs App to complete setup.
Making a SharkBite Connection 1. Check that fittings and pipe are clean, in good condition and are free from damage and foreign objects. Also check that the pipe is free from scratches, cuts, or gouges. 2. Cut the pipe so that the ends are square. Ensure that there are no burrs or damage to the cut end. 3. Once the pipe end is cut square and clean, use the SharkBite Depth Deburr Gauge (sold separately) and a permanent marker to mark the insert depth on the outside of the pipe.
Wi-Fi Troubleshooting The Wi-Fi icon will indicate different connectivity status. See below for a guide on how to interpret the Wi-Fi LED. Amber, single-blinking pattern: The Control is in pairing mode and is waiting for a smart phone or tablet to connect to it during the Wi-Fi setup process. Amber, solid: A smart phone or tablet is currently connected to the Control. The Control will play a short beeping tune when this connection is successfully established.
How should I go about selecting an installation location for the Control? The main water entry line may be located in a basement, utility closet, garage, or crawlspace depending on which type of dwelling it is (a house, townhome or apartment). The main water entry line should have a shut-off valve used to stop the water supply to the home. (Note: this product is not intended to replace the main shut-off valve in a dwelling.) The main water entry line is typically near the water heater.
How should I go about selecting an installation location for the Control? Please Note: Consider checking your Wi-Fi signal strength at this location before installing the Control. The Control requires a 2.4ghz Wi-Fi connection for operation. Try opening a browser page on your phone from this location to ensure you receive a signal. The chosen install location must also be in range of a standard wall outlet.
In what direction and orientation should I install the Control? The Control unit must be installed such that the direction of water flow in the pipe matches the direction of the arrow on the bottom of the unit. If you're looking at the top of the StreamLabs Control unit such that the words "open" and "close" are upright and read left to right, the water in the pipe should flow from the left of the unit to the right of the unit.
