Thickness of sink or countertop hole must not exceed 1-3/4" (4.4 cm).

Cold water supply connection must be available. See “Water supply requirements” section.

Grounded electrical outlet is required. See “Electrical requirements” section. The outlet should be located within 42" (106.7 cm) of hot water dispenser tank.
