STEP 2. Check Ball Valve Alignment BEFORE installation- If the ball valve is attached to the VC100, look
into the open end of the ball valve to verify it is open. If the ball valve is not attached to the VC100 skip
to STEP 3 then perform STEP 5 and attach the valve then verify alignment using this step. With the valve
attached, when manually commanded, the ball valve should open to full port and closes with no light
coming through then proceed to STEP 3. ONLY If the ball valve does not appear to open to full port or
close fully, contact Vital Home Systems. Ensure the VC100’s last position is in the OPEN position before
proceeding to STEP 3.

CAUTION! NEVER PUT ANYTHING INTO THE BALL VALVE ESPECIALLY A BODY PART. THE MOTOR IS
STRONG ENOUGH TO SEVERELY DAMAGE OR SEVERE A FINGER!

STEP 3. Remove lower Valve Coupler Mount- Ensure the VC100 and the valve (if installed) is in the
OPEN position before removing Valve Coupler Mount. DO NOT change the motor position or valve
position. If you accidently changed the valve position. Toggle the Manual Valve Control Switch to the
left which is the OPEN position. The motor will not operate if you toggle the switch left and it is in the
open position.

If the valve was installed when you received your VC100, remove the four large bolts from the Valve
Coupler Mount with the large supplied allen key. This will expose the valve stem coupler. Using the
small allen key and a small metric wrench, loosen the four bolts holding the valve to the coupler mount
and separate the valve from the mount.

Step 4. Install Valve on Water Line- Provide the VC100 supplied valve to a licensed and experienced
plumber for installation onto the water line. Typically the valves are installed on the
house/condo/apartment water main after the water meter, then after the main water shut off and after
the water regulator. Please consult with your plumber for the best location for the VC100 valve while
still providing access for battery replacement and manual operation. Do not place the VC100 or run
plumbing outside of a temperature controlled structure in climates where the temperature can cause
water to freeze. The VC100 can be installed horizontally, or sideways position. The valve may be installed
vertically but with the valve at the bottom of the VC100 and the switches at the top. If the VC100 is
installed vertically with the valve at the top, this WILL CAUSE DAMAGE to the batteries. Do not install
the VC100 upside down. Select a location where you have enough room to mount and service the
VC100 Motor. Ensure the VC100 valve is in the OPEN position when installed.

CAUTION! STOP AND READ THIS! IF YOUR HOME HAS A WATER FIRE
SPRINKLER SYSTEM OR WATER FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEM,
SPRINKLER SYSTEM OR WATER FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEM,
IT IS
IMPORTANT THAT THE VC100 IS NOT INSTALLED BEFORE OR ON A FIRE SPRINKLER OR FIRE
SUPPRESSION WATER LINE. INSTALLATION BEFORE OR ON A FIRE SPRINKLER OR SUPPRESSION WATER
LINE MAY CAUSE THAT SYSTEM TO FAIL!
