Installation Instructions:

Notice: Failure to read and comply with all warnings, cautions and instructions prior to starting installation may cause personal injury and/or property damage and

void the warranty. Note: this device works with both 3/4" and 1" drain pipes.

For use with 1" drain pipe, add 1" x 3/4" socket couplings (not included) to the SS1 ends.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR 3/4" DRAIN PIPE

1. Disconnect power to the air conditioner (A/C) unit at the main panel. 2. Glue a ¾" stub (not included) onto drain pan outlet adapter. 3. Glue the Tee inlet onto the

¾" stub (Note that the Tee is not directional). Tee may be sloped to a maximum of 45° from pan outlet. 4. Glue the Tee outlet onto the downstream drain line. 5. Test

all drain and tting connections for plumbing leaks. 6. Wire the switch per instructions under WIRING (Fig 7). 7. Rotate the two Cam Locks to the UNLOCK position (Fig

2). Remove the Cap/Float Subassembly from the Tee. Test the switch by lifting the Float while the unit is running. If wired correctly, the A/C unit will stop. 8. Secure

the Cap/Float Subassembly (A) Place the Cap/Float Subassembly onto the Tee, then rotate the two Cam Locks to the LOCK position (Fig 3). DO NOT GLUE THE CAP/

FLOAT SUBASSEMBLY INTO THE TEE. (B) It is recommended to push the Stem to the bottom position for the most sensitive water detection (Fig 4). If sensitivity needs

to be adjusted, move the stem up or down accordingly. 9. Test switch sensitivity: Plug drain downstream from installation point and run A/C unit to ll the drain pan.

Float should rise and A/C unit should stop before pan overows. (A) If the pan overows, increase the switch sensitivity by: 1 - Shifting the entire assembly lower, or

2 - Pushing the Stem down. (B) If the unit stops too early or too frequently, reduce the switch sensitivity by: 1 -Shifting the entire assembly higher, or 2 - Pulling the Stem

up. 10. Place included Warning Sticker on a visible surface, such as air handler or condenser unit.
