Water Hookup
PREPARE PLUMBING
The water valve uses a standard 1/4” (6.35 mm)
compression tting.
Plumbing installation must observe all state and local
codes. All water and drain connections MUST BE made by
a licensed/qualied plumbing contractor. Failure to follow
recommendations and instructions may result in damage
and/or harm.
Water Supply Connection
When connecting the water supply, please note the
following:
• Before installing the unit and connecting to the cold
water supply, review the local plumbing codes.
• The water pressure should be between 20 and 120 psi
(138 and 827 kPa).
• The water line MUST have a shut-off valve in the
supply line.
• The water line should be looped into 2 coils. This will
allow the unit to be removed for cleaning and servicing.
Make certain that the tubing is not pinched or damaged
during installation.
Do not use any plastic water supply line. The line is under
pressure at all times. Plastic may crack or rupture with age
and cause damage to your home.Do not use tape or joint
compound when attaching a braided exible water supply
line that includes a rubber gasket. The gasket provides
an adequate seal – other materials could cause blockage
of the valve.Failure to follow recommendations and
instructions may result in damage and/or harm, ooding or
void the product warranty.Use new hose set. Do not reuse
old hose set.
