HOW IT WORKS
LIV uses a Smart Hub to power a series of on-demand repellers installed throughout your outdoor
space. When turned on, each repeller continually releases repellent to provide complete area protection
from mosquitoes and other flying insects, when and where you need it.
With the LIV+ app, you can control your system from anywhere, set schedules and timers, and more.
Let’s get started!
Just follow the step-by-step instructions and remember —
we’re always here to answer any questions.
PLAN INSTALL CONNECT
Identify areas you use the most and want to feel protection from mosquitoes. e.g., perimeter around an
entire patio, or important areas like the grill, seating area, playground, etc.
The repellers should be placed near those areas, within 10 feet of the zones you want to protect, and for
continuous protection, up to 20 feet apart from each other.

LAY IT ALL OUT
Lay each repeller according to your plan outlined in Step 1. Lay the cables between repellers to
ensure you have enough cable length to route around any obstacles.
MOUNT THE HUB
The Smart Hub should be located near an outdoor outlet in an
area with strong Wi-Fi signal. Check Wi-Fi signal on your phone
before installing any components. Once adequate signal is
confirmed, prepare to mount the hub to a wall, post, or stake no
more than 6 feet from the power outlet and at least 30 inches off
the ground to avoid exposure to water and snow. Use the
template provided to drill the 2 mounting screws and hang the
hub in place.
Note: If mounting onto brick or other masonry, concrete anchors
and an appropriate drill bit will be required.

PLAN INSTALL CONNECT
Note: Repellers provide 360 degrees of protection; for best results, place a repeller within 10 feet of the areas most
commonly used, like patio chairs, grills, tables, walkways, etc. For continuous area protection, space repellers 20 feet
apart.

Depending on your installation and selected hardware, follow the appropriate step below to attach
repeller.
MOUNT THE REPELLERS
Use a Hardscape Base on stone,
paver, decking, or other hard
surfaces where drilling is not
desired.
To install, thread the standard mount to
the base until secure. Pass the leads
from the repeller through the center of
the base and install the repeller by
squeezing the quick-connect tabs.
Route the pigtail connectors on the
underside of the base so they sit in the
cutouts.
Use the Standard Mount to
install directly to a firm
surface.
Hold the mount in place and mark
the hole locations. Pre-drill at
least two holes and attach the
mount with standard deck
screws*. Pass the cable through
the cutouts and install the repeller
onto the mount by squeezing the
quick-connect tabs.
Use a Ground Stake on soft
ground like grass or mulch.
To install, press the stake into the
ground until it is flush or just
above ground level. Twist on the
standard mount. Pass the cable
through the cutouts, and attach
the repeller by squeezing the
quick-connect tabs.

CONNECT THE CABLES

First, connect a cable to the smart hub. Remove the cap from the ends of cable leads on the first
repeller. Connect the corresponding end of the first cable to the repeller. Connect each subse-
quent repeller in the same fashion. Leave the cap plug on the remaining cable pigtail of the final
repeller in the chain.
Note: The connectors should be threaded finger tight — do not over-tighten.
Do not bend or attempt to stuff excess cable into the repeller base.

TEST YOUR SYSTEM SECURE THE CABLES
Finish your installation by routing and securing your cables to
prevent damage, avoid tripping hazards, and provide a profes-
sional installed appearance.
Run Above Ground
Tuck the cable along edges
of decking or pathways; or
secure it with landscape
staples or cable hooks.
Cover with Mulch
Cover the cable with
at least 2 inches of mulch.
Burial
Use a shovel/edging tool to
create a 1-2 inch deep
trench, lay the cable and
cover with dirt.

Plug in the hub and check the underside: the Status LED should be blinking blue if connect-
ed to power. Press the center power button and make sure the ring around the button
illuminates. Check each repeller to confirm the lights begin to flash in a chasing pattern.
Within 5 minutes, the lights should change to solid blue.
Turn off the system by pressing the power button. Continue with final installation of cables.

Common installation methods include:

Align the tabs on the cartridge with
the tabs on the repeller. Slide the
cartridge up into place until you
feel it click. Replace the repeller
hood.
Remove the hood from the
repeller by twisting it 1/4 turn
counter-clockwise.
Open a repellent cartridge
by twisting the blue top
counter-clockwise. Do not
touch the wick.

Repeller Hood
*Note: The repeller has a set screw at the bottom of the repeller hood which can be used to lock the hood to the repeller and
prevent unintended access to a cartridge. Use a 1.5mm allen wrench to back out the screw just enough to lock in place.
