Electrolux Quiet Clean PU3650, Installation Manual

Enlarge the hole in the exterior wall to accommodate 

the inlet valve assembly (valve and mounting bracket). 

(As described above in “Installing an inlet valve.”)  

Inside the closet, drill a pilot hole through the fl oor 

beneath the opening in the wall or at a convenient 

spot nearby to check for obstructions. If there are no 

obstructions, cut a 2-1/4" (5.7cm) hole through the 

fl oor. Run low-voltage wire through the hole in fl oor, 

and through the wall to exterior of closet.

Pass low-voltage wire through the wire guide hole in 

the inner wall closet assembly 

(Fig. 02)

 and tape or 

cable tie low-voltage wire to this assembly immediately 

behind the bracket. Attach wires to low-voltage terminals 

on the back of the inlet valve. Place the inner wall 

assembly lengthwise through the wall opening and 

arrange the assembly so the bracket is fl ush with the 

inside surface of the wall. Screw the inlet valve to the 

wall 

(Fig. 03)

.

Floor valve installation.

To install a fl oor inlet valve, drill a pilot hole with a 

wire coat hanger and check the location as previously 

described. When you are sure that the proposed location

will not be blocked by a joist or other obstruction, cut 

a hole in the carpet slightly larger than your 2-1/4" 

(5.7cm) drill bit. Drill a 2-1/4" (5.7cm) hole in the fl oor. 

Enlarge the opening to accommodate the low-volt 

connections. Assemble an adapter reducer bushing 

and attach the low-volt wire to the inlet valve. Drop the 

low-volt wire to the basement. Screw the valve to the 

fl oor. Repeat until all inlets are installed.

Multi-story homes. 

Multi-story homes usually require one or more inlets 

on each level. Instead of trying to line up inlet valves 

from one level to the next, run a separate line of

tubing from the upstairs inlet valve to a branch line

or to the main trunk line 

(Fig. 04)

.

In a two-story home, upstairs beneath the site you’ve 

selected for the inlet valve cut a hole just large 

enough to allow you to reach the second-fl oor sole 

plate. 

Hint: Cut the hole low in the wall for easier 

drilling through the sole plate.

 Cut a 2-1/4" (5.7cm) 

hole in the sole plate. Install the inlet valve just as 

before. Then, from the basement, insert a length of 

tubing long enough to reach through the hole in the 

second fl oor sole plate to the site for the inlet valve. 

You may have to join several lengths of tubing.

Measure and pre-cut these pieces and test-fi t them 

before gluing. When you do apply glue, work quickly 

to prevent the glue at the top end of the tubing from 

drying out before it reaches the fi tting at the inlet valve.
