INSTALLATION:

1.   Mount hanger bracket to wall horizontally level as shown in Roughing-In and Dimensional Drawing. 

Note: Adjust height of bracket if bubbler outlet height is required to vary from that shown. 
WARNING: Hanger Bracket MUST be securely anchored to wall with fasteners sufficient to support 
3 times weight of cooler. If wall can not provide adequate support, order and install optional fixture 
support carrier. 

2.   Remove the bottom cover from the water cooler and set aside in a safe place. Save the screws in a 

secure location for re-use in later stages of installation.

3.   Hang the water cooler on the hanger bracket, ensuring the bracket tabs engage AND seat in the 

slots in the back of the water cooler. Verify water cooler is level, left to right AND front to back from 
bottom of unit. NOTE: The bubbler stream may be adversely affected if unit is not square and level. 
Bottom of unit and louvers should be used as reference to verify unit is square and plumb. 

4.   Anchor water cooler to wall at other mounting points in base. Shim lower rear mounting points to 

level unit if necessary. 

5.   Thoroughly flush the 3/8” O.D. supply line and then connect water cooler to water supply angle stop 

valve (by others) with supplied 3/8” O.D. copper tube. 

6.   Make up 1-1/4” O.D. p-trap (by others) waste connection.

START UP:

1.   Before connecting power supply and assembling bottom cover to water cooler, but after thoroughly 

flushing the supply line and connecting it to the fixture, turn on building water supply and check all 
connections for leak.

2.   Air within the water cooler  s

  ystem or the structure supply piping will cause an irregular bubbler 

outlet stream until purged out by incoming water. Covering the bubbler with a clean cup (or similar 
object) is recommended when first activating water cooler to prevent excessive splashing. Depress 
the pushbutton until steady water stream is achieved.

3.   If water flow requires adjustment, insert a slotted narrow blade screwdriver through the hole 

centered on the pushbutton to the flow regulator. Turning clockwise will increase flow and turning 
counterclockwise will decrease flow.

4.   Recheck all water and drain connections with water flowing through system.

5.   With power still NOT connected, carefully manually rotate cooling fan to insure proper clearance 

and free fan action.

6.   Plug water cooler in to electrical outlet and make sure unit begins to function.

7.   Assemble bottom cover to water cooler with screws furnished.
