Installation, Care and Maintenance

Overview of the System Concept

For safety reasons, this hot water dispensing system features a “non pressurized” heating tank. This means that the incoming water is first routed through the valve in the dispensing head, where line pressure feeding the system terminates. When the valve is activated, water is directed down to feed the inlet at the top of the heater tank, displacing heated water up through the spout. When the valve is off, the tank is open to atmosphere (via the spout), making it impossible for the tank to be subjected to stress from an overheating condition.

Overview of Installation

There are three main components to the system, the dispensing head, the filter and the heating tank. The Dispensing head comes with three 1/4” copper tubes and one “Norprene” tube. The two shorter (12”) copper tubes are connected to the incoming water supply via the filter. The supply to the cold side may be diverted through a chiller before the dispensing head if required. The longer (18”) copper tube is connected to the inlet of the tank. The “Norprene” tube is connected to the outlet of the tank using the hose connector.

Preparing for the Installation

As with any sink related device, it is much easier to mount the dispensing head of this system onto the sink before the sink is mounted into the countertop. A mounting hole of 1 diameter (standard sink ledge drilling) is required.

It is always recommended to take the components and locate their optimum positions before starting the installation. This particularly applies to the heating tank as it must be positioned for the connections to the dispensing head, while at the same

p system. The heating tank is furnished with a grounded power

d and plug. A grounded non-switchable outlet for this

c connection must be provided beneath the sink.

IMPORTANT: Do not plug in the unit until all water connections have been made and the tank is filled completely.

Making the Supply Provision

Provide a branch compression connection for a tube. This should be done with a conventional tee and the shut-off valve provided. Flush the pipework before installing.

to the drain plug. Determine the best position to enable the tubing connections to be made and mark the position for the mounting bracket (approximately 2” below the top of the tank). Attach the mounting bracket to the wall and hang the tank in position.

IMPORTANT: During installation the tank should remain unplugged with the thermostatic control in the “off” position. The tank must be filled with water before power is connected. A “dry start” will void the warranty (see “Fill the System”). DO NOT connect this product to the mains water supply, where the supply pressure exceeds 100psi (7 bar). If in any doubt, please ask your registered plumber to check the water pressures. Failure to comply will invalidate the product warranty.

Filter System Installation 1 Make sure to remove any protective packing from

around the cartridge and remove the plastic plugs from the inlet and outlet of the filter cap.

Please note: The cartridge is fragile and may break if mishandled or dropped.

2 Undo the two halves of the filter housing. Hold Cap

whilst pressing down on the safety clip and unscrew Housing a quarter turn in the direction of the arrow shown. Place housing to one side.

3 Wet the two ‘O’ seals on the threaded end of the new

cartridge, then screw it firmly into the female thread in the Cap.

4 Fit Cap and Housing back together and turn a quarter

for leaks. Plug in and Turn On

Plug in to electrical supply and turn control to ‘ON’. Depending on the temperature of the incoming water it will take from 10 to 15 minutes for the water to reach it’s optimum, near boiling, temperature. A ‘perking’ sound from the tank and water dripping from the spout near the end of each heating cycle is normal.

IMPORTANT ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS: Do not under any circumstances, remove the power supply grounding prong. For

your personal safety, this appliance must be grounded. This appliance is equipped with a power supply cord having a three prong grounding plug. To avoid possible shock hazard, the cord must be plugged into a mating three prong grounding type wall receptacle. A 15 or 20 Amp circuit is acceptable. If a mating wall receptacle is not available, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to have a properly grounded three prong wall receptacle installed by a qualified electrician.

An extension cord should not be used with this appliance, such use may result in a fire, electrical shock or other personal injury.

Seasonal Shutdown

If you plan to be away from home for extended periods, or the filter housing may be subject to the risk of freezing, the following procedure must be carried out:
