Addendum for R1P Chiller Installation with

under-the-sink RO Connection

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Since reverse osmosis (RO) systems have certain pressure minimums for operation, these override the
minimum requirements stated in the Use and Care Guide for the chiller. The operating pressure for
the chiller must not exceed 100 psi.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

1. Connect the chiller after the last filter as shown in the Use and Care Guide. This is generally after
the bladder tank. See the schematic below. Make sure that the outlet of the chiller leads directly to
the inlet of the faucet as shown on page 4 of the Use and Care Guide. NOTE: The extremely cold
water may cause condensation on the outside of the faucet during use. This is normal and will not
hurt the faucet.

2. You do not need to use the pressure relief check valve configuration (parts 12 and 13 of the parts
listed) shown in the manual as long as water from the chiller can freely flow backwards through
the filter to the bladder tank. If you are uncertain whether this can happen, connect the check
valve across the filtration set as shown in the Use and Care Guide.

Location Requirements

IMPORTANT:
Faucet is sold separately and requires a 1-3/8” (3.5cm) diameter opening in sink or countertop. Spout can be

installed in place of sink spray hose. If faucet is not to be installed in sink spray hose opening, it is recommended
that a qualified installer be contacted to drill a hole through your type of sink or countertop. Thickness of
countertop at the hole must not exceed 1-3/4” (4.4cm).

For best performance, allow a 2” (5cm) space around the side and the top. Do not put any objects on top of the
chiller that could obstruct the fan.

Electrical Requirements

A 120-volt, 60 Hz, 15- or 20-amp, grounded electrical supply
is required. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving
only your chiller unit be provided. Use an outlet that cannot
be turned on/off by a switch.

Recommended Ground Method

The chiller must be grounded. This appliance is equipped
with a power supply cord with a 3 prong ground plug. To
minimize possible chock hazard, the cord must be plugged
into a mating 3 prong, ground-type outlet, grounded in
accordance with all national and local codes and ordinances.
If a mating outlet is not available, it is the personal
responsibility and obligation of the customer to have a
properly grounded, 3 prong outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.

Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Failure to follow these instructions can result

in death, fire or electrical shock.

WARNING

If local codes permit, the chiller feed line should be
connected to the cold water supply line with the “T”
water line connector included with the faucet (sold
separately). If you are using a filtration unit, the chiller
should be connected after the filtration unit.

IMPORTANT: If local codes do not permit the use of the
“T” water line connector, special feed valves can be
obtained from your local plumbing supply retailer.

The water pressure to the chiller should be between 30
psi (MIN) and 100 psi (MAX).

Water Supply Requirements

Installation Instructions

How to Insert/Remove Tubing

in Easy Connect Fitting

Insert the tubing separately. See Figure A.
Make sure to insert tubing completely. See Figure B.
Push in collet and pull out tubing. See Figure C.

Install the Chiller

NOTE: Tubing must be cut to fit. All tubes must be cut
squarely with no burrs. All tubing connections must be
fully seated. Tubing must be routed to avoid sharp bends
and have enough slack to avoid straining connections. A P­clip and mounting screw is included to hold the tubing in
place as needed. Pull gently on each connection to make
sure they are secure.

IMPORTANT: After the chiller is unpacked, place chiller
upright for 24 hours before plugging it in.

1. Determine where you will install your chiller.
See “Location Requirements” section.

2. For best performance, allow a 2” (5cm) space around
the side and top. Do not put any objects on top of the
chiller that could obstruct the fan.

3. Shut off water supply valves.

4. Install ProSelect™ faucet sold separately. See faucet’s
installation instructions.

5. Using the white tubing included with the faucet (sold
separately), connect on end to the chiller (water in) and
the other end to the flow monitor outlet (blue collet)
(see Figure 1).

NOTE: If you are installing the chiller with a filtration
system, follow steps 6a to 13. Following these steps will
avoid the possibility of excessive pressure building as the
chiller cycles on and off. If you are NOT installing the chiller
with a filtration system, follow steps 6b and 10 to 13.

6a. Connect “T” (part 12) to “water out” chiller tube.

Connect blue tubing between “T” and faucet, sold
separately (see figure 2).

6b. If you are NOT installing a filtration system, connect

blue tubing between the “water out” chiller tube and
faucet, sold separately. Do NOT use “T” quick connect
fittings (part 12) or check valve (part 13).

7. Cut 6 inches of white tubing. Connect one end to “T”
(part 12) that is connected to “water out” chiller tube
and other end to check valve inlet (see Figure 2).

8. Cut white tubing between the “T” water line connector
(part 9) and the white “water in” collet of the filtration
system. Connect the straight-thru ports of the second
“T” (part 12) to the loose ends of the white tubing just
cut (see Figure 3).

9. Connect white tubing included with chiller between the
third port of the second “T” (part 12) and check valve
outlet (see Figure 3).

10. Slowly turn on water supply valve. Depress faucet lever

until water flows for about one minute. Check all
connections.

11. Plug in chiller.

12. Prior to drinking water from chiller, flush water

through chiller for at least 5 minutes.

Troubleshooting

Chiller Warranty

Warrantor: Oasis Corporation, 265 N. Hamilton Rd., Columbus, OH, 43213-0150, USA

CHECK THE FOLLOWING

• Check that the circuit breaker has not tripped or the house fuse has
not blown.

• Check that power supply cord is plugged into electrical outlet.

• Check if the electrical outlet is operated by a switch. The switch may
have turned the power off.

• Cold water in tank is still being chilled. Wait 15 minutes and check
temperature again.

• Check that the Temperature Control is set to the “Max” setting.

PROBLEM

Water is not cold.

• Check that the tubing is not bent or kinked.Cold water drips or sputters from spout.

• Make sure main supply valve is open.

• Check the flow monitor reading on faucet. Green light is good, yellow
light is fair and red light indicates filter change.

• Check that water pressure to the chiller is 30 psi (138 kPa) minimum.

• Check to see if chiller is attached to hot water line. If so, attach to
cold water line.

• Check UltraEase™ filters for proper installation.

Water does not flow from spout.

• If the dispenser has not been used for 3 or more days or if only 1 to
3 cups of water are dispensed in a day, the tank may need to be
purged. Open the faucet for 2 to 3 minutes to purge the old water
from the tank. Allow new water in tank to reach desired temperature
(approximately 1 hour) before dispensing water.

• Check the flow monitor reading on faucet. Green light is good, yellow
light is fair and red light indicates filter change.
