Setup and Installation
Installation of the water inlet valve should only be performed by a qualified technician. Always ensure the appliance is disconnected from power and water supply before beginning any installation or repair work.
- Safety First: Disconnect the appliance from its electrical power source and shut off the main water supply to the appliance.
- Access the Valve: Locate the existing water inlet valve within your appliance. This may require removing access panels or covers. Refer to your appliance's specific service manual for exact location and access procedures.
- Drain Residual Water: Place a towel or shallow pan beneath the valve to catch any residual water when disconnecting hoses.
- Disconnect Connections: Carefully disconnect the water inlet hose(s) and any electrical wiring connected to the old valve. Note the orientation and connection points for reassembly.
- Remove Old Valve: Unmount the old water inlet valve from its position. This may involve unscrewing mounting brackets or releasing clips.
- Install New Valve: Position the new Fagor Commercial 12152753 Water Inlet Valve in the same location and secure it using the original mounting hardware.

- Check for Leaks: Carefully inspect all connections for any signs of water leaks. Run a short cycle or test the water fill function of the appliance to confirm proper operation and absence of leaks.
- Reassemble Appliance: Reinstall any access panels or covers removed during the installation process.
If you encounter any difficulties or are unsure about any step, consult a professional appliance technician.
Operating Instructions
The Fagor Commercial 12152753 Water Inlet Valve is an automatic component that operates in conjunction with your appliance's control system. It does not require manual operation.
- When the appliance's control board signals for water, the valve opens to allow water to flow into the appliance.
- Once the required water level or duration is met, the control board signals the valve to close, stopping the water flow.
- Ensure the appliance's main water supply is always turned on for the valve to function correctly.
Maintenance
Regular maintenance of the water inlet valve is generally not required beyond ensuring clean water supply. However, periodic inspection can help prevent issues.
- Leak Inspection: Periodically check the area around the water inlet valve and its connections for any signs of water leaks or drips. Address any leaks immediately to prevent water damage.
- Filter Screen (if applicable): Some water inlet valves may have a small filter screen at the inlet connection to prevent debris from entering. If your valve has one, inspect it periodically for clogs and clean it gently with water if necessary. Ensure the water supply is off before inspecting or cleaning.
- Hose Condition: Inspect the water inlet hoses connected to the valve for cracks, kinks, or signs of wear. Replace damaged hoses as needed.
