3.0 Design Considerations
1/2”
Installing U-Chill
TM
is easy. All that is required is a hole in your countertop and space below
for the cylinder, a power socket, and depending on the space below your countertop, a
small vent.
Ensure space around the cooling cylinder below
the countertop has a minimum internal height of
15-3/4” (400mm) and the hole is at least 1/2”
(13mm) away from the internal walls.
3.1 Minimum Space
3.2 Countertop Cutout
(13mm)
(400mm)
15-3/4”
If installing multiple U-Chill
TM
units into one void,
ensure that the centre points of each hole are at-
least 7-7/8” (200mm) apart (1-7/8” distance from
edge of one U-Chill
TM
crown to the next).
The hole can be created using:
6-1/16”
Countertop thickness:
Maximum 2-1/2” (64mm)
Minimum 1/16” (1.5mm)
(154mm)
Specied to 6-1/16” (154mm) in diameter
CNC / Waterjet cutting
Using a standard 6” hole saw
Manual Cutting
3.3 Marine Applications
If installing U-Chill
TM
into a yacht or marine environment:
Install in-cabin and keep dry
The unit is designed to withstand 15 volts for short periods
of time, as is common when many vessels start up
Keep away from chlorinated water, such as hot tubs and
swimming pools
3.4 Natural Stone & Metallic Counters
Materials with magnetic properties (metal counter tops, natural stone with magnetic minerals)
can interfere with the U-Chill
TM
smart-touch crown and the washer provided must be used in
order to insulate the crown.
Simply insert the washer between the U-Chill
TM
crown and the counter as shown:
PLEASE NOTE:
If you are unsure of whether the counter top has magnetic properties either install the
washer provided or retain for future use
Push washer onto U-Chill
TM
1. Lower into counter, keeping washer
under crown
2.
