from the 1/2" water supply line.
A water shut-off valve should be installed on the incoming water line in a convenient location.
Unit must be installed on a water line with a flowing pressure between 20 PSI and 90 PSI. If water pressure does not

fall into this range or varies greatly, a pressure regulator should be installed in the water supply line.
Check the termination of the water line where the Brewer will stand. (The water line must terminate into a 1/4' flare

fitting). Be sure to use pipe sealant (approved for potable water) on the male threads of the fitting to prevent water
