CAUTION

Plumbing installation must observe all state and local codes. All water and drain connections MUST BE made by a licensed/qualified plumbing contractor. Failure to follow recommendations and instructions may result in damage and/or harm.

Water Supply Connection

When connecting the water supply, follow these guidelines:

Review the local plumbing codes before you install the unit.

Connect to the cold water supply.

The water pressure should be between 20 and 120 psi.

The water line MUST have a shut-off valve in the 1/4” O.D. supply line.

Leave approximately 8’ of water line to be coiled behind the appliance. The water line should be looped into 2 coils. This will allow the unit to be removed for cleaning and servicing. However, make certain that the tubing is not pinched or damaged during installation.

IMPORTANT

U-Line requires the use of copper tubing for 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 water damage to your home.

1.For units with front mounted water solenoids you must remove the grille

1.Install the 1/4 inch OD copper water line to the main water source.

2.Locate the compression fitting and

ferrule packed with the unit. Slide the compression fitting and ferrule over the 1/4-inch OD water supply line. Do not use thread sealing compound or tape. Using two wrenches, tighten the compression fitting on the supply line.

3.Carefully bend the water supply line into position and connect the line to the solenoid valve. Avoid kinking the water supply line.

IMPORTANT

For units with front mounted water solenoids, route the water supply line through the unit so it does not come into contact with any internal components other than the solenoid valve. Normal operation creates some vibration. A water supply line contacting an internal component or cabinet wall can cause excessive noise during operation or damage to the line.

4.For recessed installations, allow extra water supply line length to provide slack for easy removal from the recessed area. This will also safeguard against kinking the line.
