Equipment You May Need:
We are delighted that you have chose n the InSinkErator® Instant Hot Wate r Tap to be a part
of your home. Thi s unique appliance will save you time and ef fort in the kitchen, and you’ll
enjoy discover ing new uses for it each day. That’s exactly why millions of people are now
using an InSinkErator Ins tant Hot Water Tap.
We are confident that by following our step-by-step instructions, you’ll soon be enjoyin g
the convenience of instant hot water.
For your satisfaction and safet y, read all instructions, cautions and warnings before installing or using this
instant hot water tap.
This particular unit is not intended for commercial use.
Make sure that all electrical wiring and connections conform to local codes.
A standard 230-volt grounded electrical outlet is required under the sink for the tank’s electrical power.
The wall outlet powering your tank must have power supplied to it continuously.
This outlet must be fused and should not be controlled by the same wall switch that operates the disposer,
unless you have a SinkTop Switch™ from InSinkErator®.
Faucet must be installed such that the outlet opening is greater than 25mm above the overflow rim of the sink.
It is recommended that a dedicated control valve be installed on the cold water line supplying water to
this system.
If you suspect elevated levels of chlorine in your water, or your water has a rusty appearance before the installation
of this unit, it is recommended to use our water filtration system.
This product contains stainless steel. The manufacturer cannot guarantee against rust y water because of the
number of factors that are involved beyond the manufacturer’s control. However, the sudden appearance of rusty
water discharged from the hot water tap may indicate the need for service or replacement of this product.
The use of a water filter should NOT result in the water pressure to drop below 172 kPa. If it does,
this will prevent your unit from operating properly.
Moving parts inside the tank causing a rattling noise is normal.
WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Equipment Required:
