About Follett Sparkling Water ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
Follett’s 7 and 15 Series Ice and Sparkling Water dispensers produce Follett’s consumer-preferred Chewblet®
nugget ice as well as chilled and sparkling water. Follett’s premium sparkling drinking water is characterized by
small, dense bubbles. Follett does not produce the large “popping” bubbles found in sugary soda drinks. A good
comparison for Follett’s sparkling water would be Perrier or Pellegrino. It is important to note this distinction.
Customers who are seeking the big-bubbles found in club soda or soft drinks may be disappointed. However, taste
tests conducted by Follett at a variety of test sites have veried a high level of approval for Follett’s sparkling water.
Two factors play a large part in producing quality sparkling water. First, the water being injected with food grade
CO2 must be controlled between 46 F – 51 F. Second, the incoming water must have the proper range of mineral
content. Too many minerals can lead to premature scaling of the ice maker and the need for excess product
maintenance. Too few minerals can result in avorless sparkling water which can go at quickly. To ensure the
highest quality sparkling water, the water supply (after ltration) must have a hardness between 80 ppm and
400ppm TDS. Test your water rst and lter as necessary to achieve the appropriate hardness. Filtration should
also remove any chlorine tastes from the water, another enemy of good sparkling water taste.
An appropriate source of CO2 must be in place prior to installation of this ice and water dispenser. It is critical that
the Follett sparkling system be fed only food grade CO2. Follett does not sell or distribute CO2. Follett provides
a regulator for standard UN1013 beverage grade CO2 tanks with a CGA-320 thread. The CO2 tanks and CO2
itself must be sourced locally by the end user. Tanks must be secured at all times to prevent from tipping, and
must be stored below 120°F. There are a variety of local codes and restrictions about the handling and storage of
CO2 across the U.S. Please consult a local CO2 distributor for more information. Follett can provide some limited
guidance to help nd an appropriate source for CO2, however, Follett does not guarantee the ability to provide a
CO2 contact in every market.
Welcome ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

Final Connections - Countertop Installation
1. Use 1/4" OD tubing to plumb incoming water (above countertop) to the tting on the rear of the dispenser
(Fig. 8.1).
2. Mount the Flood Prevention Valve bracket inside the cabinet. Refer to the instructions included with the
Flood Prevention Valve and set the Valve to the "2" position using the included key.
3. Use 1/4" OD tubing to plumb incoming water (below countertop) to the Flood Prevention Valve, assuring
the correct length so that it snaps into the mounting bracket (note proper ow direction) (Fig. 8.2).
4. Plumb to the Water Pressure Regulator (Fig. 8.3).
5. Then plumb to the Chiller/Carbonator (Fig. 8.4) assuring there is enough line that the Chiller/Carbonator
can be removed and set in front of the cabinet. Note proper ow direction for the devices and the Flood
Prevention Valve must be mounted vertically.
6. Remove the right side panel of the dispenser (see Page 24) to expose the Chiller/Carbonator connections.
7. Install the insulated Sparkling and Chilled Still water lines and the power cord to the dispenser, routing the
lines down through the cutout in the countertop (Fig. 8.5).
Note: Water lines are supplied at 6 ft. lengths. Note the Chilled Still water is 3/8" OD tubing and the Sparkling
water is 1/4" OD tubing.
8. Install the plug in the center Ambient Water Out of the Chiller/Carbonator (Fig. 8.6).
9. Connect the Chilled Still water 3/8" OD tubing to the Chiller/Carbonator (Fig. 8.7).
10. Connect the Sparkling water 1/4" OD tubing to the Chiller/Carbonator (Fig. 8.8).
11. Install the tube tting and are washer onto the CO2 regulator. Install the CO2 pressure regulator onto
the CO2 tank. Make sure that the CO2 tank is installed in a location with appropriate tipping prevention
according to local codes. Installing an OSHA approved cylinder rack with chain in an adjacent cabinet with
easy access for cylinder change-outs is recommended.
12. Install 1/4" OD LLDPE tubing from the regulator to the back of the Chiller/Carbonator (Fig. 8.9).
13. Leave the shutoff valve in the OFF position and open the cylinder valve. Using a at blade screwdriver
adjust the CO2 pressure to 60 psi on the top gauge. (The CO2 cylinder is not supplied and is the
responsibility of the customer.)
14. Turn on water and leave CO2 off. Make sure all water valves are open and check for leaks.
15. Plug in the dispenser but do not turn Chiller/Carbonator on at this point.
16. Dispense 1 liter Still water from the dispenser, then dispense 1 liter Sparkling water (Note: at this point,
the water will not be carbonated).
1 7. Remove the screw from the Chiller/Carbonator top panel (Fig. 8.10) and remove top panel (Fig. 8.11).
18. Pull the Chiller/Carbonator safety valve ring (Fig. 8.12) until water starts to come out of the side of the
tting and release immediately. It may take up to a minute for water to run from the safety valve. Reinstall
Chiller/Carbonator top panel.
Note: This procedure is required to remove an air bubble upon initial installation which can prevent the machine
from functioning properly. If air is trapped, the carbonation pump will continue running and eventually fault.
This requires a power cycle to reset.
19. Open the CO2 valve on the CO2 regulator and turn ON the power switch on the front of the Chiller/
Carbonator. Make sure the thermostat on the front of the Chiller/Carbonator is set to the coldest position
(7). Dispense Sparkling water until you hear the Chiller/Carbonator pump turn on (Note: the pump is very
quiet). The pump should turn off again within a few seconds depending on how much carbonated water
is dispensed. Perform at least 3 dispenses to cycle the pump and assure there is no trapped air in the
system.
20. Install Chiller/Carbonator cradle into cabinet. Slide Chiller/Carbonator into cabinet between the cradle
opening and assure the Chiller/Carbonator exhaust shroud is located above the cutout in the toe-kick

Final Connections - Freestanding Installation
1. Mount the Flood Prevention Valve bracket to the rear of the base stand (Fig.9.1).
2. Refer to the instructions included with the Flood Prevention Valve and set the Valve to the "2" position
using the included key.
3. Use 1/4" OD tubing to plumb incoming water to the tee tting (Fig. 9.2).
4. Use 1/4" OD tubing to plumb from the tee tting to the tting on the rear of the dispenser (Fig. 9.3).
5. Use 1/4" OD tubing to plumb from the tee to the Flood Prevention Valve, assuring the correct length so
that it snaps into the mounting bracket (note proper ow direction) (Fig. 9.4).
6. Use 1/4" OD tubing to plumb to the Water Pressure Regulator (Fig. 9.5).
7. Then plumb to the Chiller/Carbonator (Fig. 9.6) assuring there is enough line that the Chiller/Carbonator
can be removed and set in front of the base stand.
8. Remove the right side panel of the dispenser (see Page 24) to expose the Chiller/Carbonator connections.
Cut a 1.25" length of the rubber edging. Install the 1.25" length on the short edge of the base stand pass
through (Fig.9.7) and the remaining 6.75" length on the long edge (Fig. 9.8).
9. Install the insulated Sparkling and Chilled Still water lines and the power cord to the dispenser, routing the
lines down through the base stand (Fig. 9.9).
Note: Water lines are supplied at 6 ft. lengths, but can be trimmed to 4 ft. length for freestanding applications. Note
the Chilled Still water is 3/8" OD tubing and the Sparkling water is 1/4" OD tubing.
10. Install the plug in the center Ambient Water Out of the Chiller/Carbonator (Fig. 9.10).
11. Connect the Chilled Still water 3/8" OD tubing to the Chiller/Carbonator (Fig. 9.11).
12. Connect the Sparkling water 1/4" OD tubing to the Chiller/Carbonator (Fig. 9.12).
13. Install the tube tting and are washer onto the CO2 regulator. Install the CO2 pressure regulator onto
the CO2 tank. Make sure that the CO2 tank is installed in a location with appropriate tipping prevention
according to local codes. Installing an OSHA approved cylinder rack with chain in an adjacent cabinet with
easy access for cylinder change-outs is recommended.
14. Install 1/4" OD LLDPE tubing from the regulator to the back of the Chiller/Carbonator (Fig. 9.13).
15. Leave the shutoff valve in the OFF position and open the cylinder valve. Using a at blade screwdriver
adjust the CO2 pressure to 60 psi on the top gauge. (The CO2 cylinder is not supplied and is the
responsibility of the customer.)
16. Turn on water and leave CO2 off. Make sure all water valves are open and check for leaks.
1 7. Plug in the dispenser but do not turn Chiller/Carbonator on at this point.
18. Dispense 1 liter Still water from the dispenser, then dispense 1 liter Sparkling water (Note: at this point,
the water will not be carbonated).
19. Remove the screw from the Chiller/Carbonator top panel (Fig. 9.14) and remove top panel (Fig. 9.15).
20. Pull the Chiller/Carbonator safety valve ring (Fig. 9.16) until water starts to come out of the side of the
tting and release immediately. It may take up to a minute for water to run from the safety valve. Reinstall
Chiller/Carbonator top panel.
Note: This procedure is required to remove an air bubble upon initial installation which can prevent the machine
from functioning properly. If air is trapped, the carbonation pump will continue running and eventually fault.
This requires a power cycle to reset.
2 1. Open the CO2 valve on the CO2 regulator and turn ON the power switch on the front of the Chiller/
Carbonator. Make sure the thermostat on the front of the Chiller/Carbonator is set to the coldest position
(7). Dispense Sparkling water until you hear the Chiller/Carbonator pump turn on (Note: the pump is very
quiet). The pump should turn off again within a few seconds depending on how much carbonated water
is dispensed. Perform at least 3 dispenses to cycle the pump and assure there is no trapped air in the
system.
22. Install Chiller/Carbonator cradle into base stand. Slide Chiller/Carbonator into base stand between the
cradle opening and assure the Chiller/Carbonator exhaust shroud is located above the cutout in the base
stand. Install the front Chiller/Carbonator retaining brackets into the base stand and replace the base
stand cover. Allow 2-4 hours for the Chiller/Carbonator to reach temperature.
