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 (Figure 77). 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 recommends the use of copper tubing for installation or using flexible water supply kit from U-Line, Part No.

WATERHOOKUP.

If using the flexible water supply kit, follow the instructions included with the kit.

To connect to 1/4” copper line water supply:

1.Locate the desired cold water supply location. Attach a 1/4” copper line to this location and route the tubing to the appliance. 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 line to flex when removing the unit for cleaning and servicing (Figure 77).

2.Locate the U-Line supplied garden hose fitting. Ensure the end of the copper tubing has been cut straight and free of burrs. Slide the compression nut and ferrule onto the copper tubing as shown (Figure 78). Push the assembly completely into the the garden hose fitting and tighten using the two wrenches. Wait to connect this assembly to the appliance until the drain connection is ready.
