Installations
This valve is designed for installation in a continuous pressure 
potable water supply system 12" above the highest point of the 
downstream piping. The valve must be installed with the supply 
connectedtothebottomandinaverticalposition.Allowade-
quate space for periodic inspection, servicing or testing. The 
valveshouldnotbeinstalledinanareawherefreezingorspill-

must be provided in cold weather applications. 1.5psi (10 kPa) 
must be exerted against the float spring to seal the float and air 
inlet.Donotundersizesupplyanddischargepiping.
Important Note: Vacuum breakers are not designed, tested 
or approved to protect against backpressure backflow or water 
hammer shock. For protection against backpressure backflow,
