Installing Alice on your tank

Note: we suggest putting your old fitting in a ziploc bag to keep the old fitting from putting the oil smell into the air.

Step T1

Using a pipe wrench, remove one of the available fittings on the top of your tank (this may require some strength).


Step T2

Screw the Alice gauge into the fitting with your hands. DO NOT USE THE PIPE WRENCH; it could harm the gauge threads.

Helpful hint: use a step stool so you are looking DOWN at the tank, rather than reaching up.


AFTER you have connected your gauge to your WiFi, wait 6 hours for readings to begin. Some people may wish to take a manual reading after they have installed the gauge. Caution: it is extremely easy to hold the blue button down too long and go into setup mode. This will DISCONNECT your gauge from your WiFi and you will need to reconnect the gauge. We strongly urge you to wait ~ 6 hours for the automatic readings to begin. If you still wish to take a manual reading, click here for step by step instructions.
