CONNECTING THE WATER SUPPLY

When connecting the water supply, follow these guidelines:

Review the local plumbing codes before you install the unit.

In most instances, the cold water supply will come from the basement through a hole in the floor.

The water pressure should be between 20 and 120 psi.

CAUTION

If you are using a filter system you will need to have at least 20 psi for 3 minutes every 15 minutes.

Install a SHUT-OFF VALVE in the 1/4" supply line (not supplied with unit).

Connect sufficient tubing to the unit to allow the unit to be moved for cleaning and servicing. However, make certain that the tubing is not pinched or damaged during installation.

U-Line recommends the use of copper tubing for installation.
