Bloomfield 0482 INSTALLATION continued, Read This Carefully Before Starting The Installation

INSTALLATION (continued)

READ THIS CAREFULLY BEFORE STARTING THE INSTALLATION

CAUTION:

ELECTRICAL

DAMAGE

DO NOT plug in or energize this appliance until all Installation Instructions are read and followed. Damage to the Brewer will occur if these instructions are not followed.

IMPORTANT:

Tank must be full of water before connecting brewer to electric power. Heating elements will be damaged if allowed to operate without being fully submerged in water. See instructions for filling tank, page 8.

Damage caused by operating the brewer without water in the tank is NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY.

NOTE: Water supply inlet line must meet certain minimum criteria to insure successful operation of the brewer. Bloomfield recommends 1/4" copper tubing for installation of less than 12 feet and 3/8" for more than 12 feet from a 1/2" water supply line.

NOTE: This equipment must be installed to comply with applicable federal, state and local plumbing codes and ordinances.

PLUMBER’S INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (AUTOMATIC BREWERS)

Brewer should be connected to a POTABLE WATER, COLD WATER line. Flush water line before connecting to Brewer.

DO NOT use a saddle valve with a self-piercing tap for the water line connection. Such a tap can become restricted by waterline debris. For systems that must use a saddle tap, shut off the main water supply and drill a 3/16” (minimum) tap for the saddle connection, in order to insure an ample water supply. Remember to flush the line prior to installing the saddle.

The brewer must be installed on a water line with average pressure between 20 PSI and 90 PSI. If your water pressure exceeds 90 PSI at anytime, a pressure regulator must be installed in the water supply line to limit the pressure to not more than 90 PSI in order to avoid damage to lines and solenoid.

A water shut-off valve should be installed on the incoming water line in a convenient location (Use a low restriction type valve, such as a 1/4-turn ball valve, to avoid loss of water flow thru the valve.

NSF requires that the brewer be able to be moved for cleaning underneath. Loops of copper tubing will satisfy this requirement. See Figure 3 below.

Fig. 3 Water Supply Installation

In some areas, local codes require a backflow preventer (check valve) to be installed on the inlet water line. If a backflow preventer is used, you must install a water hammer arrester in the incoming line, between the backflow preventer and the brewer inlet, as far away from the brewer as space will allow. This will relieve the excessive back pressures that can cause faucet leaks and solenoid malfunctions.
