[/one_half][one_half_last] [/one_half_last]Bridge Valve™ Installation
Location:
The Bridge Valve should be installed under the kitchen or bathroom sink at the farthest fixture from the water heater. Branched plumbing systems will need a Bridge Valve at the end of each line. Additional Bridge Valves are available at www.FasterHotWater.com.
Note: Do not use Teflon tape or pipe dope on Bridge Valve connections.
The Bridge Valve can be used with both 3/8″ and 1/2″ angle stops (the valves under the sink).

Bridge Valve installation
3/8″ Angle Stop Installation:
- Turn off both the hot and cold angle stops (valves) below the sink
- Place the supplied washers in female end of adapters.
- Attach adapters to both “Cold Water Out” and “Hot Water Out” ports of the Bridge Valve. Tighten adapters finger tight plus a quarter turn with a wrench.
- Disconnect existing hot water supply line from the hot angle stop and connect it to the adapter installed on the “Hot Water Out” port of the Bridge Valve.
- Disconnect existing cold water supply line from the cold angle stop and connect it to the adapter installed on the “Cold Water Out” port of the Bridge Valve.
- Connect the new 1/2″ x 3/8″ flex hose to the hot water angle stop (3/8″ side) and the “Hot Water In” port (1/2″ side) of the Bridge Valve.
- Connect the new 1/2″ x 3/8″ flex hose to the cold water angle stop (3/8″ side) and the “Cold Water In” port (1/2″ side) of the Bridge Valve.
- Open both the hot water and cold water angle stops and check for leaks.
- If desired, the Bridge Valve can be mounted to the wall with the mounting screws.

Bridge Valve™ Operation
The following steps will determine if the Bridge Valve is operating correctly.
- Close the cold water angle stop (valve) below the sink.
- Quickly turn the hot water faucet on and then off to activate the pump.
- Open the cold water faucet.
- Water should flow from the faucet until warm water (95°F) reaches the Bridge Valve. The flow should gradually decrease until no water is coming from the faucet at which time the Bridge Valve has closed.
