Installation:
1. Pour concrete slab on top of ground – minimum 24” wide x 33” long x 4” thick. In the off center of concrete slab leave a hole 10” x 10” to bring underground water line up through.
2. For best results – use a 10-14" diameter plastic, or corrugated, pipe. (Pipe should be 18” below bottom
frost line), leave this hole open for water line and air space.
NOTE: Do not allow concrete to be in contact with water supply line.
3. Insulate around pipe with Reflectix unfaced reflective roll insulation, or equivalent. This will keep the cold and frost from getting under drinker, having 45-48F., underground air temperature rising into drinker year round keeps drinker from freezing in winter and cooler on hot summer days.
4. Fasten ‘L’ brackets to drinker with short bolts in four (4) corners.
5. Set drinker on concrete slab – drill 3/8” holes for brackets into concrete slab. Before fastening drinker to slab, put a layer of silicone caulk on ALL surfaces inside and out that contact concrete slab.
Very Important: Seal with heavy bead of silicone caulk all around top of underground hole, and around outside of drinker to seal out cold.
6. Install 3/4" plastic pipe coming to drinker, leave approximately 10” of pipe sticking out from the top of your concrete base.
Option: Use a 12” to 14” PVC Drain Pipe underground instead of insulated box: Purchase 1/2" Arm-a-Flex (closed cell foam) from your local plumber and glue to inside of pipe, leaving 3/4" sticking out of the top for a sealing gasket.
NOTE:
Do not use any steel pipe.
Do not allow concrete or pipe to be in contact with water supply line.
Pipe clamps & caulking not included.
