Mounting Your Water Sensor
It is recommended that you discover your sensor before mounting it.
1
Using the supplied double-sided tape, peel one-side of the paper strip and place it on the back of
the sensor. Peel the other side of the tape and place the sensor in the location desired.
You can also mount the sensor more securely using the screws in the hardware kit. Using the
drilling template found later in this guide, drill two pilot holes for the screws. Affix the screws to
one side of the object (typically the "stationary" side) leaving 1/16" (1.6 mm) space between the
screw head and the object. Mount the sensor onto the screws and slide down to lock into place.
2
Using the holes on the drilling template, mark the position of the holes to
be drilled. For drywall or other composite surfaces use a 7/32" drill bit.
Drill a hole for each of the mounting screws and insert a plastic wall
anchor into each hole. For other solid surfaces use a 1/16" drill bit. Drill a
pilot hole for each of the mounting screws.
Warning, when mounting near a window, drilling too close to the glass could break the
glass and possibly cause it to shatter. The window extends deeper into the frame than can be seen; therefore,
ensure your screw is beyond the glass before drilling.

If you used screws, mount the sensor onto the screws and slide down to lock into place.
Attaching the Probe
The probe, which attaches to the Water Sensor, is immersible and designed to monitor the presence
or absence of water. A pool, aquarium, hot water heater, or radiator are just a few suggested places to
monitor.
1
Insert the plug into the bottom of the sensor.
2
Place the Probe in the location you wish to monitor.
