Supply Line

Compression valve or T-fitting option (not supplied):

■Ensure that a shutoff valve is installed on the cold water supply line. If so, a T-fitting or compression valve can be used to connect the dispenser.

■Connect the 16" (40.6 cm) long, 1/4" diameter copper tube on the dispenser to the T-fitting as shown (see step 4).

Saddle valves are susceptible

to clogging.

Saddle valve option (not supplied):

■Follow the directions for “self-piercing attachment” included with the valve.

■Connect the 16" (40.6 cm) long, 1/4" diameter copper tube on the dispenser to the saddle valve as shown (see step 4).

■Open the valve and let a small amount of water run through it into a pan. This will flush the line of sediment.

Attach the valve to a cold water supply line.

Shutoff valve option (not supplied):

■The water connection can be made using a shutoff valve. This is a more complex installation and should only be attempted by an experienced installer with the proper knowledge and tools.
