Hydro Tap Installation and Operating Instructions - 89026UK - June 2009 Page 5 of 24
Note:
Always ensure the silicone tubes are shortened so that any excess is
removed and their route is the most direct line between the tap assembly
and the HydroTap unit.
Do not allow the tubes to sag or droop so water is trapped within the
hoses. Always maintain a constant fall
Positioning of the tap assembly must be within the following parameters:
The height between the base of the Hydrotap unit and the base of the Tap
assembly cannot be greater than 900mm.
Filter Control (for filtered models)
The Zip HydroTap filter control is preset to 6000 Litres to provide trouble-free
flow and operation in most installations. Local water quality conditions may
require an alteration to this capacity. In areas where the water has a high
concentration of sediment, the preset litre capacity may be shortened to avoid
poor flow, taste or odour situations. In areas where the water quality is above
average, lengthening the preset capacity may be desirable, but not essential. If
any of these changes is needed, follow the instructions on page 17 or contact
your Zip Service Provider.
Frost Protection
If this appliance is located where the ambient air temperature could fall below
5ºC when the heater is not in use, do not turn off the appliance electrically.
This safeguard does not offer the same protection to the connecting pipework
and fittings.
Installation Environment Considerations
This unit is intended for indoor use only and should never be installed outdoors
or exposed to the elements of nature. This unit must not be positioned in an
area that may be cleaned by a water jet. This unit must not be cleaned by a

Warning:
Zip HydroTaps are designed to operate within 1ºC to 2ºC of set point for boiling
water. For the Domestic Compact model only, the chilled water set point can
be adjusted in 1ºC increments as follows: 7-11º ; 8-12º ; 9-13º or 10-14ºC.
All boiling water units are self calibrating to 98ºC, which is the recommended
setting. Adjustments to the 98ºC setting are not recommended however, under
certain circumstances adjustments may be made between 68º - 100ºC . The
100ºC setting is not recommended as units may discharge or boil over, more
frequently.
Adjustments to the set points can only be made within the Service Menu. For
details see Step F on page 9.
Caution must be observed when changing any settings within the
Service Menu as any changes may affect the normal operation of the unit.
