1.
Familiarize
yourself with the RC Wallframe which should already be in place in the wall. If not, refer to the
“RC Wallframe” Installation Instructions before proceeding.
2.
Determine
location of rough plumbing. At this point, you should decide which style trap you plan to use. For
easier installation, we recommend the use of a swivel trap.
3.
Install
the basin (See Fig. 7). Hold the basin flush against the wall, positioning the top edge just above the upper
edge of the wallframe. Then slide the basin down slowly until it engages the hanger bracket. Be sure the basin is
firmly engaged before releasing it.
4.
Finish
securing basin in place. Align the brackets at the bottom of the basin with the bracket on the frame. Fasten
the brackets together using screws and speednuts (provided with fountain).
5.
Install
tailpiece assembly. Slide the slip nut and gasket from the trap onto the tailpiece. Insert the tailpiece
assembly into the trap and align its other end with the drain hole in the basin. Place rubber gasket between the
tailpiece assembly and the basin, then screw in the drain plug from above. Tighten the drain plug. Tighten slip
nut and swivel joint. Snap the strainer plate into the drain plug.
6.
Install
a service stop (not provided) on the supply water inlet line. Turn on supply water and flush thoroughly.
7.
Install
refrigeration unit. Slide refrigeration unit into the wallframe and position tight against left side and flush
with the front edge of wallframe. WARNING: Adequate space must be maintained behind the refrigeration unit for
air circulation.
