USER GUIDE
Water Hookup
PREPARE PLUMBING
The water valve uses a standard 1/4" (6.35 mm) compression fitting. U-Line recommends using accessory water hook up kit – part # 80-54674-00. The kit includes a 10' (3 m) braided flexible water supply line and a brass hose fitting.
! CAUTION
Plumbing installation must observe all state and local codes. All water and drain connections MUST BE made by a licensed/qualified plumbing contractor. Failure to follow recommendations and instructions may result in damage and/or harm.
Water Supply Connection
When connecting the water supply, please note the following:
•Before installing the unit and connecting to the cold water supply, review the local plumbing codes.
•The water pressure should be between 20 and 120 psi (138 and 827 kPa).
•The water line MUST have a shut-off valve in the supply line.
•The water line should be looped into 2 coils. This will allow the unit to be removed for cleaning and servicing. Make certain that the tubing is not pinched or damaged during installation.
! WARNING
Connect to potable water supply only.
u-line.com
! CAUTION
Do not use any plastic water supply line. The line is under pressure at all times. Plastic may crack or rupture with age and cause damage to your home.
Do not use tape or joint compound when attaching a braided flexible water supply line that includes a rubber gasket. The gasket provides an adequate seal – other materials could cause blockage of the valve.
Failure to follow recommendations and instructions may result in damage and/or harm, flooding or void the product warranty.
Use new hose set. Do not reuse old hose set.
! CAUTION
Turn off water supply and disconnect electrical supply to unit prior to installation.
Use caution when handling back panel. The edges could be sharp.
