WATER SUPPLY
Connect the cold water inlet supply
Note: Use white Teflon tape at all threaded water connections
- The cold water inlet joint is ½" NPT threaded pipe.
- The water inlet should be connected by using flexible heavy duty tubing or rigid
PVC pipe. If you choose flexible tubing, you will need a ½" threaded male to ½"
hose barb adapter. Tubing should be secured with properly sized hose clamps.
Rigid pipe should be ½" male threads. Teflon tape should be employed with any
threaded fittings.
- The inner diameter of the inlet pipe (including the valve) should not be less than
3/8". Larger diameter pipe is acceptable with the appropriate adapters to reduce to
½" at the inletjoint.
-The cold water valve must be installed inline with the water inlet pipe.
- Always flush a new unit with water to clear out any collected deposits or debris prior
to installation. The supplied screen filter must be correctly installed in the cold water
inlet to prevent mineral deposits from your water supply from building up in the
unit's water valve assembly. After flushing with cold water and confirming that there
is no residue in the pipe, install the rubber gasket and tighten the water inlet joint.
