Separate hot and cold shut-off valves are usually located behind or next to your
washer, with hoses leading to your washer.

The control unit needs to be close enough to the shut-off valves and floor for the
sensor wire (6ft) and control lead wires (5ft) to reach.
The smart module should be between the control unit and the shut-off valves. It
also needs to be close to a power outlet.
IMPORTANT:
The smart module needs a strong signal from your WiFi router to work properly.
Shut-off
Test the strength of your WiFi network's signal where you plan to mount the smart module—make
valves
sure your phone is on the WiFi network you want to use, then look at the WiFi signal meter on your
phone's screen. Make sure you're getting at least 50% signal strength where you plan to install. If not,
try moving your WiFi router closer (or installing a WiFi signal booster close to the installation).
