U-Line CLRCO2175, CLR2160 manual Water Supply Connection

CAUTION

In the event of a power outage, restricted drain or pump failure, the failure to use the U-Line P60 drain pump or a pump with the above listed specifications, could result in substantial water leakage and pooling with severe and costly water damage and related consequential damages and 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.

•Install a shut-off valve in the 1/4 inch Outside Diameter water supply line.

•Connect sufficient tubing to the unit so that tubing may be looped, allowing the unit to be removed for cleaning and servicing (see Figure 40). However, make certain that the tubing is not pinched or damaged during installation.

NOTE: U-Line recommends the use of copper tubing for installation. The use of other types of tubing is not recommended due to potential aftertaste and deterioration over time.

To connect to water supply:

1.Install the 1/4 inch Outside Diameter copper water line from the main water source (see Figure 38).

2.Locate the compression fitting and ferrule packed with the unit. Slide the compression fitting and ferrule over the 1/4-inch Outside Diameter water supply line. Do not use thread sealing compound or tape. Using two wrenches, tighten the compression fitting on the supply line (see Figure 39).

3.Carefully bend the water supply line into position and connect the line to the solenoid valve (see Figure 40). Avoid kinking the water supply line.

IMPORTANT

Normal operation creates some vibration. A water supply line contacting cabinet wall may 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 (see Figure 40). This will also safeguard against kinking the line.
