INSTALLA TION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Wall should already be framed for the fountain using the positioning dimensions shown in Figures 4 or 5. Shown dimensions pertain to
installation location (framing must support up to 300 lbs. weight). These dimensions are required for compliance with ANSI Standard A117.0.
2. Install rough-in plumbing as shown in Figures 4 or 5. Run the supply water inlet line through the back panel. Install a service stop (not
provided). Turn on supply water and flush thoroughly.
3. Install back panel. Place the upper edge of the panel above mounting plate on the wall. Slide the panel down until it engages the mounting plate.
Be sure back panel is firmly engaged before releasing it.
4. Remove bottom access panel from fountain basin and save the screws. Install the fountain to the back panel and wall using (4) 5/16" x 1" long
screws and washers (provided) through holes in back panel. Tighten securely.
5. Determine required length of waste line and cut to appropriate length. 1-1/4" O.D. waste tube furnished. 1-1/4" slip trap, waste elbow and
extension not provided.
6. Make water supply connections from service stop to the 3/8" O.D. unplated copper tube coming out of the strainer. Turn on water supply and
check for leaks. Newly installed water supply line should be insulated after leak check is completed. DO NOT SOLDER TUBES INSERTED
INTO THE STRAINER AS DAMAGE TO THE O-RINGS MA Y RESUL T.
7. These products are designed to operate on 20-105 PSIG supply line pressure. If inlet pressure is above 105 PSIG, a pressure regulator must be
installed in the supply line. Any damage caused by reason of connecting these products to supply line pressures lower than 20 PSIG or higher
than 105 PSIG is not covered by warranty.
8. Check stream height from bubbler. Stream height is factory set at 35 PSI. If supply pressure varies greatly from this, turn adjustment screw
on the regulator (Item 14). Clockwise adjustment will raise stream height and counter-clockwise will lower stream height. For best adjustment
stream should hit basin approximately 6-1/2" (165mm) from bubbler.
9. Replace bottom access panel to fountain using the screws provided. Tighten securely.
