2. Safety 2.3 Personal Safety WARNING THINK SAFETY! Think Safety Before performing any work, read and understand the safety instructions in this manual. 2.1 General The Elkay Manufacturing Company (Elkay) cannot anticipate every possible circumstance that might involve a potential hazard during the installation or maintenance of this product. The warnings and instructions in this Installation, Care, & Use Manual are, therefore, not all-inclusive.
WARNING Contacting live electrical wiring with power tools or hand tools can cause serious injury or death. • Make sure all related circuit breakers are turned OFF. • Test for live circuits or wiring inside any wall where installation of the product requires cutting into a wall. rior to any maintenance, make sure the P unit is disconnected from the power source and the circuit breaker is turned OFF.
4. Installation 4.3 Critical Depth Dimensions 1. Make sure the wall cavity is deep enough to house the water dispenser (dimension A). 4.1 Tools Required Tool Used For 2. If the optional filter unit will be installed make sure there is adequate space to route electrical wiring between the wall and the filter box which is approximately 1-5/8" for standard 2 x 4 wall construction. Tape Measure Locate the mounting opening. Wall Cutting Tool Remove section of wall to insert unit.
4.4 Mounting Height Dimensions 4.5 Water Dispenser Installation 1. The suggested water dispenser mounting height to the center of the water dispenser sensor (D) is 47 inches (1194 mm). This height can be adjusted higher or lower depending on the desires of the user. There are several installation options available: A • Water dispenser with attached filter box and filter. • W ater dispenser with a remote filter.
Follow all safety practices and industry regulations and standards when connecting any electrical device. CAUTION 5. Connect a 110 VAC power supply to the water dispenser. Route the wiring through the wall into the bottom of the electrical gang box. • A 15 AMP GFCI Circuit Breaker is required for safe installation. • R oute the appropriate electrical wiring through a wiring clamp into the gang box. A 1/4 inch offset helps conceal any irregularities at the top of the wall opening. 3.
It is recommended to attach the front cover with the top two mounting screws to prevent it from falling away from the water dispenser while the filter unit is being installed. NOTICE 2. Place the filter unit into the wall opening and slide it up against the bottom of the water dispenser. Make sure the filter unit is in alignment with the water dispenser and screw it in place using four #8 flathead screws. Create an even gap across the entire unit. 4.5.
b. If the filter is installed in a remote location, attach an installer supplied length of 1/4 inch tubing to the 1/4 inch tubing from the water dispenser using a union coupling. The type of 1/4 inch tubing, copper or plastic, should meet all local regulations and building codes. Note: Do not place the remote filter more than 15 feet from the water dispenser. 2. Connect an installer supplied 3/8 inch water supply tube to the quarter-turn shutoff valve, as shown.
1. Remove the metal tray and the plastic drip tray from the drain basin. 2. Remove the two screws attaching the drain basin to the water dispenser. Remove the drain basin. 3. Place the drain basin on a flat, hard surface, such as a piece of sacrificial wood. Carefully drill a hole in the basin using a 1-inch hole saw using the centering‑dimple as a guide to center the hole saw. Note: Do not use a 1-1/8 inch hole saw as this will make the opening too large. (630) 574-8484 11 1000005232 (Rev.
7. Thread the strainer into the drain adapter. Tighten the connection to create a watertight seal. 10. Connect the drain adapter into the household waste drain pipe. If the p-trap is located inside a sealed walled, it must have permanently-glued joints. If the p-trap is in an accessible location, a standard non-glued p-trap is acceptable. Note: Whichever installation method is used, it must meet local standards and building codes. 4.
3. Connect a 3/8 inch water supply line, copper or plastic, to the quarter-turn shutoff valve. Follow the installation instructions that come with the water chiller. A filter unit must also be installed prior to the chiller, and the water line from the chiller to the water dispenser cannot be more than 15 feet long. When the filter is located in a remote location, mount the filter vertically on a wall or other supporting structure near the chiller. Water Filter Water Dispenser Water Chiller 4.
4. Place a container under the water dispenser spout to activate the fill sensor and dispense at least one gallon of water to bleed off any trapped air from the supply lines and filter as well as flush any fine carbon particles from the filter. FILTER LIFE PLASTIC BOTTLES SAVED 8. Once the installation is complete, the water has been turned on, and any trapped air has been bled from the system re-check for any water leaks. 6.
2. Shut off the water supply using the shut-off valve. Turn water shut-off valve handle to the OFF position (clockwise). The handle will be facing up when closed. Note: The filter head contains an automatic shut-off valve that stops the flow of water, in case filter is inadvertently removed without shutting OFF the water supply. 3. Activate the water dispenser using a water bottle to relieve pressure in the water line. 7. Drain the filter before disposing of it in the trash.
12. Check the filter status light. If the red light is blinking the filter is installed incorrectly. A steady blue light indicates the filter is installed properly. 13. Open the water supply valve. 14. Place a container under the spout to activate the fill sensor and dispense at least one gallon of water. This amount of water will bleed any trapped air from the supply lines and filter as well as flush any fine carbon particles from the filter.
