IM-PF 724596 1021 PureFlow Water System (EN)
9.2 Mounting Between Studs without Mounting Straps
If not using the mounting straps:
1. Cut two pieces of lumber (1x4 — or ¾" plywood — approximately 3½"
wide) to a length that provides a snug t BETWEEN two studs.
2. The top of the ManaBloc should be between four feet and six feet
from the oor (but may be at any height provided that it maintains
accessibility to all of the ports on the ManaBloc). Make a mark near
the back of the inside of one stud that would represent the top of
the ManaBloc. With a framing square or level, mirror the mark on the
inside back of the other stud.
3. Attaching the ManaBloc between the studs:
a. Measure the total length of the ManaBloc.
b. Attach the rst (UPPER) 1x4 inside and ush to the back of the
studs (see TOP VIEW, below left) at a height where the center of its
width is centered on the marks from Step 2.
c. Attach the remaining (LOWER) 1x4 inside and ush to the back of
the studs at a distance below the upper 1x4 that is equal to the
length of the ManaBloc (Step 3a) when measured from the top
of the upper 1x4 to the bottom of the lower 1x4 (see Front View
illustration).
4. CENTER THE MANABLOC IN THE STUD CAVITY: Attach the
ManaBloc to the 1x4s with four ½" - ¾" drywall screws. DO NOT
OVERTIGHTEN.
5. Go to step 5 of "9.1 Mounting Between Studs with Mounting Straps"
to nish the installation.
1x4s attach at the back, inside the studs, and
the ManaBloc is centered between the studs.
