INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT
ALL SERVICE TO BE PERFORMED BY AN AUTHORIZED SERVICE PERSON
IMPORTANT! INSTALLER PLEASE NOTE.
THE GROUNDING OF ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT SUCH AS TELEPHONE, COMPUTERS, ETC. TO WATER LINES IS A COMMON PROCEDURE. THIS GROUNDING MAY BE IN THE BUILDING OR MAY OCCUR AWAY FROM THE BUILDING. THIS GROUNDING CAN CAUSE ELECTRICAL FEEDBACK INTO A FOUNTAIN, CREATING AN ELECTROLYSIS WHICH CAUSES A METALLIC TASTE OR AN INCREASE IN THE METAL CONTENT OF THE WATER. THIS CONDITION IS AVOIDABLE BY USING THE PROPER MATERIALS AS INDICATED. ANY DRAIN FITTINGS PROVIDED BY THE INSTALLER SHOULD BE MADE OF PLASTIC TO ELECTRICALLY ISOLATE THE FOUNTAIN FROM THE BUILDING PLUMBING SYSTEM.
The freeze resistant package must be mounted on an interior wall in a heated area. The room temperature of the interior heated area must be 50° F (10° C) or higher. The freeze resistant package may be surface or recessed mounted.
If recess mounted the surface of the cover must be flush with the interior wall surface. The package is furnished with screws for mounting the cover to the box. If the box is recess mounted, do not fasten the top and bottom of the cover to the box. Use the holes on the front only.
1. Assemble the operating cable to the fountain bracket. (Fountain should be mounted to exterior wall.) The adjustment nuts should be in the middle of threaded area on the operating cable. See Figure 5. Create a loop in the cable and thread the free end of the cable through the wall into the freeze resistant box.
2.Connect free end of operating cable to the valve-operating bracket in the freeze resistant box.
3.Remove cable free play by adjusting the jam nuts on the ends of the operating cable. See Figure 6.
4.Connect water line from fountain bubbler into freeze resistant box. The connection to the box uses a quick connect water fitting. Position the water line, in the fountain, to drain back into interior mounted box. Any water left standing, in the exterior line, can freeze . See Fig. 8.
To insert tubing, push tube straight into fitting until it reaches a positive stop. To remove tubing from the fittings, relieve water pressure, push in on dark gray collar while pulling out on the tubing. See Figure 11.
5.Connect drain and water supply lines to the freeze resistant fountain. Refer to Figure 1 for component positions. Inline strainer must be used on the inlet water line. See Fig. 10.
Start-up
1.Turn on building water supply and check all connections for leaks. Repair as required.
2.Stream height is factory set at 35 PSI. If stream height needs to be changed adjust the regulator in the freeze resistant package. Clockwise adjustment raises stream height, counter clockwise adjustment will lower stream.
3.Adjust operating cable as required. Cable system should have a minimal amount of free play to allow for proper valve operation. If the system is too tight the valve will stay in the on position creating constant water flow. Too much free play will result in non-operation of the valve with the push-buttons.
4.Note: Water from the drain back tube in the freeze resistant package, will continue to run while the valve is actuated.
5.After cable system is adjusted properly stuff flexible insulation into any openings between the outside wall and the interior box.
6.Recheck all connections. If all connections are leak free replace cover(s) on the freeze resistant box(es) and fountain(s).
