TOOLS REQUIRED:
• Plastic Pipe/Tube Cutter
INSTALLATION LOCATION:
Select a suitable location where the water dispenser will be installed, (in your home/kitchen) making sure you have easy
access to an electrical wall outlet and cold water supply line.
GETTING STARTED (MAIN WATER LINE HOOK-UP):
1. IMPORTANT: Turn off the cold water supply.
2. Open the cold water faucet allowing water to purge the system (to minimize water leakage clean-up).
3. Using a tube/pipe cutter, cut and remove a section of the cold water line at the desired height (cut should be made
above any manual shut-off valve installed on the water line).
4. COPPER PIPE PLUMBING: Using emery cloth, clean both ends of the copper pipes and apply flux to "all"
surfaces to be soldered including the inside of the tee. Follow manufacturer's installation instructions provided with
the ½" Male Solder x ¼" OD Compression Fitting Shut Off Valve (B).
5. FLEXIBLE PIPE PLUMBING: Follow manufacturer's installation instructions provided with the ½" x ½" x ½"
Quick-Grip Tee (D) and ½" Quick-Grip x ¼" OD Compression Fitting Shut Off Valve (E).
6. Close the newly installed shut-off valve (See Fig. 1A and Fig. 1B) and slowly re-open the cold water supply line
and check for leaks. If leaks are detected, immediately close the water supply and repair any/all leaks. If no leaks
are detected, proceed to step 7.

7. The water dispenser includes 8 meters (26 feet) of ¼" OD flexible water line. If additional water line is needed, it
can be purchased at your local hardware store. Cut the desired length to suit your installation requirements,
making sure both ends of the water line are cut straight/square (See Fig. 1 & Fig. 2). Remove the compression nut
and compression ring from the valve and install on the water line (See Fig. 3).
